Book o' the Week

This week's book was The Eleventh Man by Ivan Doig.
It was wonderfully written, had a great storyline,
and was an all-round terrific book.
I purchased it twice and got great deals both times!
First, I bought it for my Kindle for $1.24.
And then I bought the real deal at Doc's Book Loft for $0.89.
Am I a bargain hunter or what??

To be honest, I would suggest everything
and anything written by Ivan Doig.
He is an incredible writer who speaks my language.
All of his novels,
as well as his non-fiction,
have been gripping, intriguing, interesting, and well worth the time.

I've read (multiple times) the following:
The Sea Runners
English Creek
Dancing at the Rascal Fair
Ride with Me, Mariah Montana
Bucking the Sun
Mountain Time
The Whistling Season
Work Song
This House of Sky
Heart Earth

I can't honestly say how I found the first book
of his that I read (The Whistling Season)
but truly fell in love with this author.
There were several copies of books at Doc's Book Loft
and I almost bought repeats to have at the cabin.
They would totally be worth it!

I just finished up with Cub Scouts.
We made bean bags and played various bean bag games.
It was a lot of fun.
