Yeah LF, The Outlander was on my shelf for years so I can relate with you. It’s a slow burn read but I really enjoyed it. I started it on audio but then switched to the print book which I think was a good choice. I’m impressed this literary Canadian novel is on your shelves!
Lucky Red is a quicker read from a debut author. Both are Westerns which is different for me. Hmm I’m getting into the outback. LoL.

Thanks Iliana. I typically dont read Westerns but now all of a sudden I like them or I did with these two. Go figure.
We were so lucky to see that Owl … but now I haven’t seen him again. I keep looking. I hope you will see one there — you’re near Austin right? Must be hiding owls there I think. Enjoy your week.

Hi Stargazer. Thanks, the owl was like having a miracle for a day. So rare!
Good to hear from you. The Outlander was good … although I started first with the audio but for whatever reason I changed to the print version … and liked it better. I think it’s a bit literary so maybe for me the print book was easier to get all the details. See what you think. Hope all is well there!

Hi Jane, Yeah we were so excited to see the Owl. He stayed a full afternoon and now we keep looking for him. We never get to see them!
I think you’d love The Outlander … and I want to follow up later with The Ridgerunner … she’s a great writer!
Have a nice Labor Day weekend!

The Outlander sounds amazing. Great premise and setting. I will have to find a copy.

Hi AJ: I’m envious that you have a lot of owls where you are; what kind do you have mostly? We might have many here but they are very hard to find. I think I’ve only seen 3 since I’ve lived in Alberta from 2010: 2 were Great Horned Owls which I think are the most common, and I saw one Pygmy Owl once while skiing which was amazing to see! It’s quite a small owl …. I will keep my eye out for more owls this fall.
