Spirited by Julie Cohen

This was a lovely, uplifting read.

Viola and Jonah are married, but they’re virtually strangers to each other. Which is weird because they’ve been friends all their lives. Henriette is a charlatan, but a very good one.

This is a historical novel set in the time of the Raj. It took me a while to get into it, but once I was hooked, I read the rest in one day. I loved how Viola grew stronger as the book went on and how the story between her and Jonah resolved. (I’m trying really hard not to give away any spoilers here, can you tell?)

This is a very interesting book about faith and trust and the curious place that truth has in real life. I really enjoyed the story and the ending was just wonderful.

I’ve always enjoyed Julie Cohen’s books and this one was no exception.
