I went hmmm ... what the heck did I read last winter? Thank goodness handy dandy Goodreads is there to remind me. These books are so non-wintery in subject matter or setting or anything for that matter! So without much ado, 5 of my favourite books that I read last winter:
(fiction, US, native American lit)
Suspense, mystery, mysticism, justice and a young boy coming into his own, I found this relevant, heartbreaking and deeply moving.
(fiction, USA-Southern lit)
Sweet, non-conventional romance with Southern flair!
Mountainfit by Meera Lee Sethi non-fiction, essays, Sweden
Bonuses: 2 author guest posts: Seeing the World from the Back of a Goat and My Wild Friends
Fall in love with the natural world in this little nature field guide-travelogue. Reveling in Meera's words and her sense of wonder is the next best thing to being out there on the slopes of Sweden.
(fiction, UK)
I compared this to getting my "Breaking Bad" fix. Dark, weird, disturbing, appalling. A macabre tale hard to put down.
(non-fiction, essays)
Read any of Patchett's work? Here's an intimate look into her life by way of essays on life, love and commitment. Written in such a friendly voice, it feels like sitting down for a chat with the author.
