Scalawags by Jim Christy5/31/2023 Christy went to Canada in 1968, to evade the Vietnam war draft and became a Canadian citizen. He befriended one of his closest friends and mentors, Floyd Wallace, a hobo, a former boxer and a former soldier of fortune, and learned to ride the freights at a young age. Christy began running away from home around age 12. "Boxing was in the air," he once recalled. God's Little Angle is a blend of gritty spoken word dialogue and dirty, earthy, jazz, blues and eclectic electronically fused music.īorn in Richmond, Virginia on July 14, 1945, Jim Christy grew up in South Philadelphia, a tough area featured in his autobiographical novel Streethearts, and also featured in Sylvester Stallone's Rocky movies.

Shadowfell by juliet marillier5/31/2023 If they weren’t then I would highly advise you give this a skip. If you’re not familiar with Marillier’s prior work then you will need to consider where the aspects of Lord of the Rings series in which Sam and Frodo were walking to Mordor were something you enjoyed as a reader. The second thing you should know is that the pace and story telling of this novel is even slower than that of Daughter of the Forest. It’s closer to her Daughter of the Forest series in tone and story telling though less adult. The first thing that you should know about Shadowfell is that it’s not as much the same ilk as Wildwood Dancing and Heart’s Blood. After loving Wildwood Dancing and Heart’s Blood with a fiery passion, I was sure I’d adore this one too. I feel a little embarrassed and ashamed. There are precious few authors, in my opinion, who create as earnest a fantasy environment replete with mysticism and magic as Marillier does. There is something ineffably magical about Marillier’s novels.

Hedgehugs by Steve Wilson5/31/2023 I do not want to come right out and give it away, but some things you find missing in your weekly laundry may be out in the world facilitating some hedgehog hogs!Īlthough I cannot recall exactly when I first discovered this book, it has since become a staple in my new baby gift giving. After several failed attempts, they finally find a solution in the cutest way possible. It’s not an easy thing when you are covered with spikes. To start, the title is adorable, and who could resist the cute little hedgehog friends that adorn the front cover? Horace and Hattie are the best of friends, and they have all sorts of fun things they do together. Admittedly it has some features that may appeal especially to me more than others, but I still think that it would be hard to deny the cuteness to be found in this sweet story. Just going to throw this out there: this might be the cutest children’s book that I have ever seen. Book: Hedgehugs by Steve Wilson and Lucy Tapper |
