Miss Blaire in Blackwell’s Island Review

Wow! What a fantastic story! The writing is just amazing! This was my first ever True Crime story so I was a little nervous going in. This story is based on an article, Ten Days in a Mad-House written by Nellie Bly on her findings of Blackwell Island. What goes on is so saddening and heartbreaking. Our poor heroine Edyth Blaire has been forced into Blackwell Island as mad, by her Uncle so that he may inherit her fortune. Just awful! I felt so bad for her. However, she is so tough and brave while she is there. She also has the man she loves searching for her and doing everything he can to get her out. I also liked that Nellie Bly was in the story. The suspense in this story is so good, I couldn’t put it down! Just fantastic! Also great Christian content throughout! I definitely recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
