I’ve got some new books to share with you this week and I am really excited about these titles! The first, I received as a birthday gift. I don’t often get books as gifts; most of my family figures that if they think I might like it, I probably already have it (and they’re usually right). This is a little… Read more

I love this quote! It’s not an author I’m familiar with, but I like the idea that I am somehow giving back to the books I read, sharing something of myself with their pages. I also think it is extremely accurate, in that reading a book I loved at another period in my life takes me back to that time.… Read more

Michael Gear: Dekanawida has become known as “The Sky Messenger,” a prophet of immense power, and Hiawento is his… Read more
