January 22 — Wildwood

 I just finished the 5 th book in my 2022 challenge.  It is titled “Wildwood” by Colin Meloy. 



The book was gifted to me by Bean in September 2020.  At the beginning of the pandemic we read The Last Dogs” series to each other over the phone since we couldn’t be together. What a pandemic memory but we had a good time!  I think there were five books in that series each being almost 400 pages long so it was a major project!

One day at Half Price Books she found this book and decided I would enjoy it.  It was a slow start and with my arm broken I had difficulty holding the book but I persevered.  This last week I decided to make this book my goal.  I am glad I did because about 3/4 of the way through there was a twist I wasn’t expecting—I won’t share just in case you want to read it. 

I will say that I enjoyed this read and the only thing that could have made it better would to have read it with Bean.
