Snow in Summer

pick

I wasn‘t sure what to expect going into this fairy tale retelling set in Depression era West Virginia but I really liked it and will be looking forward to reading more by Yolen.

Snow in Summer | Jane Yolen

Having lived in Ohio almost all my life, there are some great things here but I must confess I‘ve never considered it a honeymoon destination. 😂 The more times I read this line, the more tickled I get at the thought.

audraelizabeth I agree with you. I was born in WV and raised in ohio, where i live is on the border of both. 2y

megnews @audraelizabeth they were coming from WV! It is set in the Depression so I‘m sure it was something to go so “far away.” It still struck me funny though. 2y

audraelizabeth Yea, my dads parents went to niagra falls, they were married in 1955. Some people go to wv for weddings or honeymoons because wv tourism bureau does an excellent job of spending money wisely. 2y

megnews @audraelizabeth yes! Niagara Falls was definitely THE honeymoon spot for a long time. Still very popular when I was growing up in the 80s. Followed by the Poconos and Hawaii for the rich folks 😊 2y

Snow in Summer | Jane Yolen

Hey bookies!! So sorry about being awol, a lots been going on with me lately and haven‘t been in a socialising zone! I found out a have asthma, started on antidepressants, and broke my foot all in one week, and then had to deal with being a bridesmaid at wedding on top of that so it‘s been a bit crazy. Everything‘s calming now, and I‘ve had more time to read since I‘m stuck being stationary with my leg in a cast. Hope everything‘s doing well xx

ReadingRover Sorry to hear all of that. Hopefully things are starting to go uphill for you. Feel better! 🤗 💗 6y

Three regular paperbacks. 😊 I‘ve been wanting to read the tagged book forever, and btw the title feels like my life right now because it‘s been snowing for hours now.

CocoReads We don‘t appear to be having spring this year here either. At least our snow isn‘t sticking but this weather is bull 💩! 6y

GypsyKat @Jess7 I‘ve loved everything I‘ve ever read by her, so I would be surprised if I didn‘t at least like this one too. 😊 6y

GypsyKat @CocoReads It‘s really weird weather all over. I‘m really beginning to think we won‘t get Spring at all. 😕 6y

Wife In Michigan, I‘m convinced that we will go straight from 30‘s to 90‘s! 😐 6y

GypsyKat @Wife I‘m pretty sure that‘s going to happen here, too. But I hope I‘m wrong! 6y
