Patti Callahan did wonderfully when she wrote becoming Mrs. Lewis. Ms. Callahan shines in her latest book Once Upon a Wardrobe. This story is beautiful and is an excellent read. I highly recommend it.

Patti Callahan's Surviving Savannah was interesting and entertaining. The steamship Savannah sank off of the North Carolina coast in 1838. This is a dual timeline novel. Part-time the story is told by one of the ship's passengers and the present story is told by a history professor who is invited to collect and curate items found from the sunken ship. The dual storyline was enjoyable and gave an insight into the way of life in 1838 and the disaster that killed so many and also explained what went into diving upon a sunken ship and retrieving and restoring artifacts. I highly recommend this book.

Patti Callahan's Becoming Mrs. Lewis: The Improbable Love Story of Joy Davidman and C. S. Lewis was entertaining and informative. Historical fiction at its finest. Would recommend it for CS Lewis, and Patti Callahan fans and historical fiction readers.
