Continuing the countdown of my books, from 1st to 25th, THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS. Today it‘s my 8th novel, The Buffalo Solider from 2002. This was another novel in which Vermont was a microcosm for social changes occurring across America. (Also? My lovely bride, Victoria Blewer, took the cover photos.)

Follow up to My Name Is Mary Sutter, about a determined young woman who serves as a doctor during the Civil War. It‘s several years later, and Mary is working in Albany, New York. When a surprise blizzard strikes and two young girls disappear, she doesn‘t rest until they get justice. I don‘t believe there will be a third book, but I‘ll look for others she has written. #serieslove2025

I found some more books for Jace & I to read together for #foodandlit this month. This is an adorable story about a cat named Katje who lives with Nico, who works as a miller. Katje finds herself feeling left out when Nico marries and has a baby. Katje saves the day (and the baby!) when a dam bursts and there‘s a flood. 4.5⭐️

1. Sitting quietly in the morning with a cup of coffee and a book on my phone makes my day. Today that was a little delayed thanks to a power outage, but it‘s all sorted now.
2. The MC of this book is showing, just like in the first book, that she can be compassionate and caring to those in need but won‘t take any 💩from pompous people who try to tell her how to live her life.

This heartfelt story captures a boy‘s survival and resilience during Hurricane Katrina, shedding light on the human impact of natural disasters.

I found this galley proof of Hunter‘s first novel in the bargain carts at The Strand this summer. I loved The Harpy so it caught my eye. It‘s a slim, sparse account of a climate apocalypse that feels pretty realistic at this point, and the aftermath, told by the narrator who is a new mother. I liked it; a low pick.

BarbaraBB Beautiful cover! 5mo
Suet624 Oh gosh... I have another grandchild coming in February and I don't think I could possibly read this one. :( 4mo
