Dear Bookclub,
Wanting to read a bit of "History of Wolves" before writing our blog, I ended up reading the whole thing, trying to find a hook for this entry. Not easily categorized but being a tantalizing mash-up, Fridlund's novel pokes your heart and mind with images, characters and events that will be marvelous to discuss. I don't want to say much for fear of any revealing; the book itself is one big slow reveal. Once you start to read, you will be 'hooked'."Mystery Wolves" by Walt Barker |
Trudy's suggestions for an upcoming selection:
"What She Ate" by Laura Shapiro
"Before We Were Yours" by Lisa Wingate
"Endurance" by Alfred Lansing
Please research and be ready to vote next week.
Finally, I came across a lovely article about Elizabeth Strout - well lovely sounds like lace and tea and really this is more black linen and saltines. A great piece.

Happy reading,
