“All of the fear that had edged close to him was gone now. One of the dogs in the lean-to behind him stretched its legs, pressing them against Young Hunter‘s back. He would not think of tomorrow now.

I just have to share this text exchange because it totally made my day! A friend and I started an IRL book club 3 years by creating a fb group and opening it up to moms in our county. We have maintained a core group of about 10 members including this amazing woman. Books bonding people and changing lives. She‘s become one of my closest friends, too. 🩷📖✨
