Walking in the woods with my pup, kayaking, reading good books and listening to music that stirs my soul are my passions in life. Actually my idea of a good day kayaking is parking myself in a sunny spot on a pond, hanging my legs over the side of the kayak and opening a book! I love to read fiction, biography and memoirs with a smattering of history and true adventure thrown in the mix. I love all kinds of music as long as it lights a fire in my soul and makes me want to sing!

Deep River is my favorite kind of book, rich in history, a big family saga! The story follows members of the Koski family who left Finland and settled in the Pacific Northwest in the early 1900s embedding their lives in the logging industry. It's rich with personal trials, politics and memorable characters and is a book you can get lost in for hours!

Cherry is an explosive gut punch of a story that never lets up! The characters, their warped relationships with one another and their conversations were so vivid and realistic it was unsettling. I was hooked from the very first page. It’s a perfect portrayal of the endless cycle of addiction, PTSD and a failed support system. The desperation these characters clung to each other with, the constant planning around the next “fix” to the point where nothing else matters was intense and arresting. Nico Walker you really did send it home! ~ Reviewed by Liz Barnum
