Reading

Reading is the best thing to do in this hot weather. We are having temperatures in the 90's and will for the next 4 months. Angel at Troublesome Creek by Mignon F. Ballard was a good light mystery. Funny even though murder is involved. The Rosewood Casket by Sharyn McCrumb was excellent. Set in the Appalachians, it tells a lot of history and has an excellent poem to start it off, Small Farms Disappearing in Tennessee by Kentucky Poet Laureate Jim Wayne Miller. I live in the foothills of the Appalachians and love this area. It is beautiful. Now I will be looking for other books by Sharyn McCrumb.
