My only 5 star read in February was actually a re-read of Wuthering Heights, my all time favorite book. Coming in at a close second was Fever by Mary Beth Keane, a historical fiction about typhoid Mary.

I enjoyed What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty. I'm glad you enjoyed Wuthering Heights. It used to be one of my favourites and I re-read it every couple of years. Then I went a couple of decades and re-read it only last year. To my surprise, I didn't have any patience with any of the characters. I wonder why/how I've changed so much! What Alice Forgot sure got me thinking about how much can change in a life in a period of 10 years. And the ten tears in question are between age 29 and 39.

I am reading Madame Fourcade's Secret War by Lynne Olson. It is really a good read. It begins in 1936 and I was born in 1938. So many brave women and men during the French Resistance.

Re-read A Canticle for Leibowitz in February. Enjoyed it, but not as much as I did 45 years ago. Cannot seem to muster a lot of energy for reading these days. Late Feb thru early April is always so unsettled.

I'd say my favorite for February was The Prisoner of Zenda
