 This book had me on the edge of my seat, needless to say. I was near vomiting in many parts of this book because WARNING: It is very explicit. The survival instinct kicks in and the rest is history. Here is a link below for more information about Lori and her book and the horrendous journey she had to endure. True story. http://www.loris-song.com/

I'm reading French Broad by Wilma Dykeman
Its a factual narrative about a local river, the French Broad, and its history beginning in the 1700s. So far I have learned much. I didn't anticipate that so many local "heroes" would be guilty of genocide (of the Cherokee) though. It does relate how the river helped with trading and is the main reason why towns (like Asheville) came into existence so long ago when settling here was such a difficult thing. I'm immersing myself in local history. I'm hoping this will be the first book of many on the subject.

There aren't many books that I can honestly say I've done this with. The only one that comes to mind is Little Women. Sometimes I just need its comfort. This discludes poetry of course. That can be re-read infinitely and you still get a different feel from it. Any which way, I figure that books that people return to have a higher merit than others. Just my happy little opinion

I just found a box of books I somehow didn't unpack and I was delighted to find a book of Mary Oliver's poetry within.... I knew I had a book of her poems somewhere....
