Freshly Read Books | The Fortune Men | Book Review | Booker 2021 Shortlist @FreshlyReadBooks | Uploaded October 2021 | Updated October 2024, 47 minutes ago.
We're nearing the end of Booker Season, so let's discuss another book off the shortlist. The Fortune Men was another book outside of my comfort zone considering it is historical fiction and set in a place that I know very little about so I'm happy to have read it. If you've read it, let me know what you think!
