Reads like Huck Finn fan fiction but from James perspective, reminiscent of the book Black Beauty.

Ways to Hide in Winter
by Sarah St. Vincent

book cover


Set in the remote woods of Pennsylvania's Blue Ridge Mountains, this book centers on a young woman who has secluded herself from the world to recover from a past trauma. A foreigner mysteriously shows up in the area; he also seems traumatized and haunted by his past. Although their lives seem as bleak as the winter woods setting, a mutual understanding creates a tenuous friendship between them. Disturbing truths revealed at the end were difficult to fathom and highlighted the extent to which humans can hurt each other. I was absorbed by this book; it wasn't a joyful read but was worthwhile.

What a beautiful book! It's hard to believe it's a debut novel - the octopus is so tenderly rendered that my heart broke for him. The other characters in the book are richly rendered and endearing. Highly recommend!

The Marriage Portrait

book cover


This was a brutal portrayal of life in the Italian courts in the 1500's when daughters were groomed to be acceptable matches for other high-powered men. The main character is smart and wily but deeply hampered by her circumstances. There is redemption at the end of the book and, after reading, I was very grateful not to live in that era!
