A friend introduced me to Bookbub.com This awesome website sends me an email every day with a list of books that I might like to read. Some are free, and some cost a small fee. The books are downloaded from Amazon to my Kindle app on my Ipad. It is awesome! I can read young adult, kidlit, romance, mysteries, cookbooks...anything my heart desires, for free or a very low price! Check it out!
The Lady Rode Bucking Horses - The Story of Fannie Sperry Steele Woman of the West by Dee Marvine. I am doing some ongoing research about the early 1900s west. This book is a perfect fit for those interested in Montana history.
Trout by Ray Bergman. This book was published in 1938, by Alfred A. Knopf, Inc. It is, as the title suggests, all about trout fishing. My brother sent me this book after he learned I was attempting to fly fish. Mr. Bergman bases this book around his own experiences, and it is very interesting. Hopefully reading this book will enhance my skills! This will be an ongoing reading project, a little here, and a little there.

Finished -
I just finished the first in a series of books, and I will be reading more. The series is Orphan Train - Hearts on the Rails by Rachel Wesson. I highly recommend it! This was a Bookbub.com find.
Judgement Ridge The True Story of the Dartmouth Murders by Dick Lehr and Mitchell Zuckhoff. This book details a tragedy on many levels, from the people who were randomly murdered, to the two young killers who slipped through the cracks and were able to commit their crimes.
The You I Never Knew, by Susan Wiggs was definitely a cute, engaging read.
I finished all the Promise, Texas books by Debbie Macomber, with the exception of the last one in the series. I will have to find that one somewhere.
The Last Apache Girl by Jim Fergus. An outstanding look at the clash between Native Americans and the Mexican and American settlers.
Don't Forget to Water the Horses by Ron Roberson. This book is about a Wyoming cowboy and his life, particularly as a lawman and stock detective.
Black Storm Comin' by Diane Lee Wilson. This young adult novel chronicles the experiences of a young man on a wagon train journey to California, and his job as a Pony Express rider.
And many, many more!
