Gone are the days when I used to read close to 100 books a year. Now I spend much more of my time reading posts on Hive, Goodreads tells me that I read 30 books in 2020.
I read for entertainment, and I needed some good books to keep me entertained in 2020 and escape what was going on in the world!
I had not read The Girl of the Limberlost by Gene Stratton- Porter since I was a kid and it was rather delightful to read it again.
Clara Callan has been on my list of books I wanted to read by Canadian author Richard B. Wright for some time. I have enjoyed his other books and this one did not disappoint me.
Looking back through these titles I am reminded how much I have loved bestselling Canadian author Louise Penny's twelve Chief Inspector Armand Gamache novels. The village of Three Pines and the people who live there have become treasured friends.
And Martin Walker's Bruno, Chief of Police Series has been a favorite. Bruno is a municipal policeman in a small French village and I enjoy reading about the café rituals and gourmet meals that Bruno cooks for his friends.
Kirsten Hannah's The Great Alone about a damaged family trying to make it in the wilds of Alaska was a binge read for me.
When the English Fall by David Williams is an apocalyptic book about the collapse of modern civilization, and an Amish community in Pennsylvania. It is an interesting premise.
Debbie Macomber's Mail Order Bride wasn't worth my time, but was a good reminder of why I don't read her books.
I'm looking forward to getting to my reading list for 2021. I did a review of my first book of the year here
The Warmth of Other Suns
