I’ve had a very busy October, which is wonderful, but has impacted on the number of books I got through this month. Still, there are some amazing titles in the thirteen books I did read. From the Cutting Room of Barney Kettle made me cry. It’s only the second Kate De Goldi book that I have read, but it won’t be the last. Braving the Wilderness also introduced me to a new author, researcher Brene Brown. I am so glad my friend Sue recommended Brene’s work to me. Her examination of aspects of belonging spoke so much to me, and I have a second book loaded onto my Audible account to listen to. Here’s the lists of what I got through in October, with links either to my reviews or to where you can find them online.
