The Road to Dalton | Shannon Bowring
post image
Pickpick

This character study set in a small town is both devastating and hopeful. It is a quiet read, one giving the reader access to the secrets and sorrows of the lives of those living in Dalton. Full review at http://booknaround.blogspot.com/2024/10/review-road-to-dalton-by-shannon-bowring...

mcctrish I bought the second and I need to move it up on my TBR list 1mo

Deblovestoread I just saw this. So excited! 1mo
tpixie @mcctrish @CSeydel @Deblovestoread I thought I‘d read Book 2 closer to book 3. I read too many books so I have a harder time remembering them. I think when I was younger, after I read a book I thought about it a lot more, which helped me remember them plus, I didn‘t read as many! 1mo
Chelsea.Poole Ooh thanks for the post! I read book two but I didn‘t love it as much as the first one. I‘ll probably stick with it and see what happens in the third. 1mo
tpixie @Chelsea.Poole hopefully the third will be a satisfying read! 1mo
CSeydel Oh yeah that makes sense 1mo
GatheringBooks Ooh! Thank you so much for sharing and for the tag! I already have book 2, and will now pre-order book 3. 1mo
CBee @tpixie oooo book 3!! I need to get to #2 soon. 1mo
BarbaraBB I had no idea there would be a third book! I still need to read the second one and fortunately it‘s my April #Roll100 book! 1mo
squirrelbrain Like most others, I haven‘t read book 2 yet. #toomanybookstoolittletime 1mo
tpixie @BarbaraBB that works out nicely! 💙🩵💙 1mo
tpixie @squirrelbrain me either. If I do I‘ll read it right before the 3rd. Otherwise, it may just heighten my Mount TBR!! ⛰️ 1mo
Lesliereadsalot Can‘t wait! I love these characters. 1mo
tpixie @Lesliereadsalot yes! It kind of reminds me of this author that also writes about a community 1mo
Lesliereadsalot Will definitely look into her books! 1mo
CSeydel Checked it out today from Libby 📖📲 1mo
tpixie @CSeydel 🩵💙🩵 yay! 1mo

willaful Yeah, back to the lack of narrative. 😂 Joe's story made me very sad, because my daughter is disabled and I worry so much about what will happen when we're gone, especially now. I bet poor Joe's mother was fretted to death about it. 3mo

BarkingMadRead @willaful I worked with special needs kids before I retired, and stuff like this makes me crazy. I have zero patience for it 3mo
Bookwormjillk So random. I thought it was because I was sleepy and dozing off, but then I went back to read again and nope. Just random. 3mo
BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk I had so much trouble focusing 🤣 3mo
Crinoline_Laphroaig I'm guessing still no plot? 😆 3mo
TheAromaofBooks I've always read about calf's foot jelly in old books as a great delicacy, and I can see why after reading about how time-consuming and complicated it is to make... but I definitely don't want to try it! 😐 3mo
BarkingMadRead @Crinoline_Laphroaig I feel like we got teased with some plot and then it was snatched away 🤣 3mo
BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks hard pass 🤣🤣 3mo
AllDebooks Some things belong in the past, like that jelly 🫣 3mo
Cuilin @AllDebooks the jelly and fox hunting!! 3mo
dabbe I gotta admit, I skimmed through this chapter and read like this: the dull green blahblahblah ... the interesting green ... blahblahblah ... fox hunting omg skip ... disgusting jelly omg skip ... blahblahblah reverend and wife then both die + congregation ... blahblahblah done. 😂 3mo
willaful I had trouble concentrating too. Thought it was the ambien. 😂 3mo
mcctrish How we get from #outwiththeoldinwiththenew clergy to Luney Joe to who takes a bath where and when is beyond me @dabbe there‘s skip and then there is skim 3mo
Bklover @willaful This made me laugh!!😂😂 3mo
willaful @Bklover glad to be of service. :-) 3mo
dabbe @mcctrish Perhaps a skip would be better--as in today's chapter as well! #oy 3mo
mcctrish @dabbe maybe skip to the end 🤣🤣🤣 3mo
dabbe @mcctrish If you will, I will. 🤩 But since I did do that for verdant-verdure UDOLPHO, I feel obligated to see this through. Sooooooo close! 😂 3mo
mcctrish @dabbe we are so close it has to count either way 🤣🤣😆 3mo
