Eggs
Tamarack County: A Novel | William Kent Krueger
post image
Pickpick

This one was edge-of-your-seat suspenseful in a sophisticated way; while exploring universally human domains: trust, vision, the mystical, love, vengeance, and morality, among others. Seems I might never get enough of Krueger…

My mother used to read to me all the time! And I was obsessed with the tagged story, and Little Mermaid!Also when I was 7,Jurassic Park,the movie came out,and I loved it so much that my dad picked out fun bits from the book and gave it to me to read,so that would be the first "grown-up" book I read with someone ?

Could not put this down once it got going! I couldn't wait to see how the multiple points of view and inner thoughts from different characters and flashbacks between two different vacations intertwined together. I thought I had it figured out a couple times and was wrong. Great twisty plot.

No power have we but it‘s pretty outside ❄️😂❄️

Power will be on in another hour they say -we‘re holding heat hour four 🤞🏻❄️

First on agenda coffee as soon as we have power ☕️

Dilara Yikes! I hope you get power and coffee soon! It is indeed very pretty ❤ 3w
CoffeeAndABook So very pretty 🤩 ❄️💫 but being without heat and especially coffee is rough!! Hope you‘ll get your power back very quickly & can then enjoy the beauties of a snowy day from within a cozy house 🔥 3w
vivastory No coffee? Ooof. Fingers crossed your power is back on soon. Stay safe! 3w

TheBookHippie @vivastory the coffee thing is 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫. 3w
TheBookHippie @CoffeeAndABook snow days are generally my favourite but I like my coffee!!! 3w
marleed It‘s so pretty. In Winter 2019, I went 70 hours (just shy of 3 full days) without power and snowed in! I clapped, cheered, did a happy dance, and took pics when I saw the linemen stepping through backyard snows to get to the transmitter. They saw me and laughed and waved. It was rough - lost my fridge and freezer of food - never thought to just put it in tubs outside. Now I own a container- just in case! 3w
TheBookHippie @marleed we own tubs for that very reason ! Longest we‘ve gone is 5 days. This came quickly and it is so heavy I‘m sure it‘s trees that fell on a line or just heavy snow .. 3w
marleed @TheBookHippie Stay warm and praying coffee is in your future! 3w
dabbe I'm sorry you're out of power (and coffee), but MAN! These photos are contest-worthy. Breathtakingly and hauntingly gorgeous! ❣️ 3w
vlwelser That coffee thing is a deal breaker. Hope you're all sorted out shortly. 🤞 3w
TheBookHippie @vlwelser they say 30 more minutes or so 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 3w
TheBookHippie @dabbe It was gorgeous over night and early morning that‘s for sure. Still pretty now 💙❄️ just a bit of a nuisance with its heaviness! 3w

Well it suddenly became winter here again recently and our kitchen got a much needed (literal) whitewash because it was a terrible orange that we decided we couldn't live with for the next few years. So splash on the paint!
This was a cute story, predictable and probably unlikely in many of the outcomes but perfect for a cozy, wintery read and full of loveable characters.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Admittedly, I bought this for the gorgeous cover! This debut novel from French Korean Dusapin is a brief translated work depicting Korean life in an off-season tourist town. Our unnamed narrator becomes fascinated with a Frenchman staying in the guesthouse she runs. They visit touristy sights together. They‘re both artists, though she feels trapped into Korean cultural norms. My favorite scenes were with her fishmonger mother.

sarahbarnes I really liked this one, too! 3w
Magpiegem I would buy that one for the cover too!! Gorgeous! 3w

Born and raised in California, Blair Braverman was drawn to the north. She ended up spending time and Norway and eventually learning to be a musher. About half this coming of age memoir is about that learning process and the other half is her settling into a small town in northern Norway and it‘s unique residents. This wasn‘t exactly what I was expecting, but I really liked it.
