It's Monday 4/11! What Are You Reading?

Editor 's note:

Same last week. Take care of my mother-in-law every day (she had a bad memory last week), my chronic illness (some good and some bad days) in cool, rainy weather. . Yesterday was February rather than April.

On Friday we had a little sunshine and a blue sky, so I traveled a little to our local natural center. I didn’t feel good for the last two days of the week, but I had to go outside, so I kept it short and slow, enjoying the fresh air and the sun. After a long rain, our stream was full and dirty, and each tree had new shoots.

High water content!

A bridge covered by our legend

New shoots on all trees.

On Saturday, my wife and I switched to mini-racing. We drove south for an hour to our repair camp. Our journey was so long that it seemed like a short trip. We listened to our favorite podcasts, read magazines in the car, and stopped for lunch while there. We have a break from daily life.

I wish we could go to camp now.

Last week I added two new videos to my YouTube channel.

Please note that I will not be posting a monthly blog post this year, but you can hear about some of the best books I read in March in this video. On Monday, the end of March, I published a summary of my work here.

I finished this bid with William Kent Krueger's book, This Year's Reading Choice Nationwide, for my next book for the Village Book Group. I love everything about him. I have heard great reviews of Craigger's books for years, so I look forward to reading this novel (the first novel). During the Great Depression, since 1932, two white orphans, Odin Albert and Moses, a dumb Indian boy, had lived with hundreds of other children at the Lincoln Indian School in Minnesota. The three of them sailed to the bottom of the river with a 6-year-old girl. This is an exciting adventure, but it is also a wonderful, powerful story of progress. It will definitely be one of the best books this year.


This weekend I started my next book of events (click events Scroll down for more information), The Rise of the Black Cloud by David Wright Falada . It is a historical art story about a group of real-life black soldiers who were recently released as former slaves . As Union troops crossed the coasts of Virginia and North Carolina, the newly freed slaves hurried to join the African Brigade. The story was told by Richard Etrick, the son of the slave girl. I still only have 50 pages, but I am baptized in history; I am learning a lot about this part of the civil war, which I do not know much about. I can't wait to find the author in May.

In the recording, I heard Arthur Conan Doyle's relatively dark classic , The Lost World . It is not a mystery but a science fiction. I did not even know that Doyle wrote in this section. Prehistoric animals (including dinosaurs) have been discovered by an amazing scientist who claims to have found a neutral place in Amazon before World War I. This is Professor Chaleger's first novel. A.D. As published in 1912, there are some horrific racist protests, but the story is interesting, exciting, and I want to see what happens next. This is an interesting reason.

My husband, Ken Martin, has started a new book on Dollarplay (my review ends with references). I loved this series! It’s about a woman named Anne Kinner, who feels like a ghost, sometimes helping her unravel a mystery. In this novel, Anne travels to the main desert island to help explore the fairytale hotel. This is one of our favorite places (Akadia National Park is located on the island) և The author always has a lot of details about the area. Now my husband enjoys all these familiar places, knows something about the history of the island, what we do not know, the mystery of that hotel is growing.

I don’t know what our son will be reading this week, but it will be home for Easter.
