What I’m Reading
Just started
The Donner Party in the Age of Manifest Destiny (Liveright) by Michael Wallis. I read a lot of non-fiction in my quest to create belieavable historical fiction. I’m already deeeeeep into a book about The Donner Party, so I had promised myself I’d cut off the research. BUT this book came out, and it seems like a pretty well-considered and professionally done. Soooooo.
Recently finished
Between Two Skies (Candlewick Press) by Joanne O’Sullivan. A moving story about a courageous girl caught up in the destruction which was Hurricane Katrina. Satisfies my love of disaster, romance, and historical fiction.
