Personal Review “The Star of Anatolia” by Jamaila Brinkley

Post by ChillAndRead »

An easy and nice short read, if you enjoy historical spy romance!

Miss Anastasia Galipp is a secret weapon of Home Office. She is a young lady, keen on gossip and mingling, which makes her an excellent source of information for the Home Office. She comes from the country, but living in London under one of her lady friend’s room is what she prefers. This and gossiping with every possible person, to get the needed information for her assignments.

The story is a historical spy romance, with a magical twist. Despite it’s short length, it is rather interesting to read. The magical pinch on the story, makes it more intriguing. It is a nice touch that really offers to the book.

Would love to read more of Miss Galipp’s adventures as an agent!

It sounds like an interesting read. I do the think I've ever read a historical spy book before but I like both. I will have to take a look at this book.

Sounds fun! I enjoy historical fiction, but historical fiction with a romantic and magical twist is even better. I'll have to add it to me to read list. That list just keeps getting longer and longer!
