 Downloaded this one from the memoir area that was on sale.  It caught my eye and minimal risk involved. - Goodreads link

She is a great storyteller. I enjoyed as she recounted her memories from her three marriages and how she navigated through them all.  Easy to read.

My Friends by Fredrik Backman (spoiler free review) this may be the best...

I almost skipped this on my Libby reads. But I am so glad I let it keep playing. It is a beautiful story of illness, love, and loss. It is gut wrenching.

Grabbed this while waiting for a flight. It reads very quickly. I have probably been apart of at least 50 hours of grief training and Army resilience. The content was very familiar and easy to read.

Oh.. Canada

Canadianity : Tales from the True North Strong and Freezing by Jeremy Taggart, Jonathan Torrens

Found this is the free book shelves at the Red Cross.  I read it in just three days time.  I am going to drop it off at the USO shelves. 

I grew up right across the lake from Ontario and have a fond memory of many of the Canadian things they speak of. Not to mention one of my most favorite places / trips ever was a solo trip to Nova Scotia.

Things I want to look up from the book:

Bonavista Social Club in Newfoundland

Manitoba

Quebec - Peep

Hotel de Glace

Brier Islands

Sugar Moon Farm - Nova Scotia

Hopewell Rocks - New Brunswick

May...

May the Lord bless you and protect you.

May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you.

May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.
