Which eBook Will I Get?

Legible - The Blood of my Mother by Roccie Hill

If you are a fan of a historical saga about one woman's fight for survival, you’ll want to join the #GOTransitReads by Legible Book Club from September 7 – November 30 to start reading the current ebook The Blood of my Mother by Roccie Hill

Here’s a taste of what you can expect:

Lonesome Dove meets Where the Crawdads Sing. I simply could not put this novel down." (Patricia Wood, author of Lottery, shortlisted for the 2008 Orange Prize for Fiction)

In The Blood of My Mother, a historical saga with many layers, a woman fights for her life as a refugee, slave, mother, and farmer. Acclaimed for her “wonderful” debut novel (Publishers Weekly), Roccie Hill, inspired by the story of her great-great grandmother, presents an unforgettable story of a woman and a place, growing and enduring under multiple flags and through the sorrows and turbulence of history.
