Join us for an interview with the delightful Tara Johnson as she shares her beautiful gift of story in her sweet southern way. Tara says history is crammed full of fascinating characters—flawed, wounded humans battling their demons with vibrant determination. You’ll find her characters reflect your own struggles, wounds, and needs—and her stories ever remind us to Whom we need turn for healing. Find Tara at TaraJohnson.com and discover her newest novel, All Through the Night, released in January. It is her third Civil War novel.

A Pinch of the Past introduces crazy 19th century clothing terms and Victorian slang. From unwhisperables and shadbellies to gigglemugs and umble-cum-stumble, you’ll find a fun word to add to your historical vocabulary. 

Our Bookworm Review brings you Tamara Leigh’s 2021 medieval release, Boundless, book six of her “Age of Conquest” series. Explore the rest of Tamara’s books at TamaraLeigh.com
