Many hours of reading pleasure have begun with a family of slightly unruly, but generally good children going out into the countryside for a summer holiday. The results are encouraging: The Penderwicks won a National Book Award. She kept her promise, not only to herself, but to many other young readers who want more good stories to enjoy.

The neat compartments of his life are breaking down, and the sudden tangle of work and family is putting both at risk. Seeing the case on the news has sent his sister Dina off the rails again, and she's resurrecting something that Scorcher thought he had tightly under control: what happened to their family, one summer at Broken Harbour, back when they were children. Scorcher's personal life is tugging for his attention. But there are too many inexplicable details and the evidence is pointing in two directions at once. At first he and his rookie partner, Richie, think this is a simple one: Pat Spain was a casualty of the recession, so he killed his children, tried to kill his wife Jenny, and finished off with himself. Scorcher Kennedy is given the case because he is the Murder squad's star detective. ![]() ![]() ![]() The mother is on her way to intensive care.

When gold was found, tens of thousands of fortune seekers and settlers moved into this sacred territory. However, General George Armstrong Custer (1839–1876) led an expedition into the Black Hills in 1874 to protect white settlers who believed that there might be gold in the region. Sacred ground to many of the Plains tribes, the Black Hills had been protected by many treaties over the years. The final conflict between these two forces came in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Eastern newspapers mocked the American forces for their inability to capture the relatively small bands of Indians who were causing so much trouble. soldiers and Indian warriors met in dozens of battles and skirmishes across the Plains region, with neither side gaining a decisive advantage.

I was obsessed with Sharon Creech’s books. The ones that had the biggest impact were Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine, Walk Two Moonsby Sharon Creech, and Chasing Redbird by Sharon Creech. This is a tough one! I formed my whole personality around the books I read as a child. After I’m caught up on my TBR, I’d like to start reading more cozy mysteries. Witches are always welcome! I like lighter, fluffier romantic comedies with a heavy emphasis on comedy. I’m especially fond of romantic fantasies or romance with a light paranormal touch. I’ll never get tired of the warmth, wit, and slow evolution of Darcy and Elizabeth’s relationship. My most reread-book, however, is Pride and Prejudice. I used to re-read my favorites a few times a year, but lately, I don’t have time. Do you re-read books? And if yes, what was your last re-read? ![]() |
