Monday
Steve didn't go ATV-ing so I went to the coffee shop on Saturday. It was nice. I just worked on the bead tapestry.
Read this weekend : FOR THE WOLF by Hannah Whitten. Fantasy. 1st of 2 in the Wilderwood series.
The first daughter is for the Throne.
The second daughter is for the Wolf.
As the only Second Daughter born in centuries, Red has one purpose—to be sacrificed to the Wolf in the Wood in the hope he'll return the world's captured gods. Red is almost relieved to go. Plagued by a dangerous power she can't control, at least she knows that in the Wilderwood, she can't hurt those she loves. Again. But the legends lie. The Wolf is a man, not a monster. Her magic is a calling, not a curse. And if she doesn't learn how to use it, the monsters the gods have become will swallow the Wilderwood—and her world—whole.
Published 2021; 481 pages.Sort of a mish-mash of elements from fairytales. Her character is named Red and at one time wears a red cape. It is very much a Beauty and the Beast type of storyline. At the end there is a glass coffin a la Snow White.
Currently also reading BOOKED FOR TROUBLE by Eva Gates. 2nd of 9 in series featuring Lucy, leaving a library job at Harvard for her aunt Ellen’s place on Bodie Island, in the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
Lucy has finally found her bliss as a librarian and resident of the Bodie Island Lighthouse. She loves walking on the beach, passing her evenings with the local book club, bonding with the library cat, Charles, and enjoying the attention of not one, but TWO eligible men. But then her socialite mother, Suzanne, unexpectedly drops in, determined to move Lucy back to Boston—and reunite her with her ex-fiancé. To make matters worse, Suzanne picks a very public fight at the local hotel with her former classmate Karen Kivas. So, when Karen turns up dead outside the library the next morning, Suzanne is immediately at the top of the suspect list. Now Lucy must hunt down a dangerous killer—before the authorities throw the book at her poor mother…
Published 2015; 292 pages. I have other books I've started but something in me is wanting light and fluffy and unchallenging.
Have a good day
Much love,
