Title:
Author:
Would you recommend this book?

One of the first prompts I checked off this year!

TITLE: Where the Red Fern Grows
AUTHOR: Wilson Rawls
RECOMMEND? Yes! Though I also recommend you have tissue handy.

Title: Remote Control
Author: Nnedi Okorafor
Recommend? If you're a fan of Okorafor's sure. It was a little confusing.

This is also the first prompt I checked off this year.

Title: This Tender Land
Author: William Kent Krueger
Would you recommend this book? Yes, it was very good. A great start to the year.

Title: World of Wonders: In Praise of Fireflies, Whale Sharks, and Other Astonishments

Author: Aimee Nezhukumatathil

Would you recommend this book? Yes, all of the essays (basically, her memoirs) actually take place outside . Nothing between her and the natural flora and fauna she writes about. Each of these is a gorgeous gem. Could you expect anything less from an award-winning poet?
Aimee Nezhukumatathil is my new favorite environmental writer, right after Rachel Carson .My favorite memoir/essay is about her love of the corpse flower, and how this plant led her to the perfect partner for her - the man who is now her husband!

Title: Keep Australia On Your Left: A True Story of an Attempt to Circumnavigate Australia by Kayak
Author: Eric Stiller
Would you recommend this book? Absolutely not. The author is very whiny throughout the whole book and it's just a frustrating experience for him and the reader.

Title: The Survivors
Author: Jane Harper
Would you recommend this book? Yes, it was my second favorite of hers after The Dry. I loved the atmospheric quality to her writing and the ending got me.

Title: Where the Crawdads Sing
Author: Delia Owens
Would you recommend this book? Absolutely! I loved it: the scenery, the independance of Kya, it was hard to put the book away.

Title: Watership Down
Author: Richard Adams
Would you recommend this book? Yes. It wasn't my favorite children's classic, but I enjoyed it.

Title: The Drowned Country
Author: Emily Tesh
Recommend: I would, but recommend you read the first book in this series, Silver in the Woods, first. Both of these books play with English fairy legend tropes, which I happen to really like.

Title: The Guest List
Author: by Lucy Foley
Would you recommend this book? Yes. It was a fun mystery.
