Synopsis

Clara found her footing in the shadows of the Hotel Hamilton. Her sister has spent the months since trying to claw her way back into the spotlight.Vancouver, 1927. Five years after their mother's death, Clara and Louisa Wilson are still finding their way — one content to disappear into her work, the other counting the days until she's back on a stage instead of scrubbing someone else's bathtub.Clara has found a strange comfort in staying small. So when the hotel matron begins grooming her for more responsibility, it unsettles her more than it excites her. Louisa, meanwhile, is done waiting to be noticed — but stepping back into the spotlight means facing the very thing that drove her out of it in the first place.When cruelty and prejudice test the fragile balance the sisters have built — inside the hotel and beyond — Clara and Louisa are forced to reckon with how differently they've each learned to survive. One sister disappears. The other performs. Neither is entirely sure anymore which version of herself is real.This isn't a story that rushes toward answers. Like the first, it unfolds in quiet moments — a shift change, a rehearsal, a walk home in the dark — where the real reckoning happens.For readers who know that some of the bravest things a woman does are the quiet ones.Meet Me at the Clock is Book 2 in the Hotel Hamilton Series, continuing Clara and Louisa's story from Welcome to the Hamilton. If you love sister stories with real friction, richly drawn 1920s settings, and women finding their own kind of courage, this one's for you.

Meet Me at the Clock is a very enjoyable historical fiction book. I was drawn in the by the time I had read the first few pages and only became more absorbed as pages flew by.

I adore how Williams' always does an impeccable job of creating strong female characters that don't let expectations or society beat them down.
