Do you prefer fiction or non-fiction? And recently?
I like them equally. Best recently was Sun Dance, non-fiction by Michael Hull about the right of passage of the Lakota, Nakota and Dakota. ~Shane Hobel, Beacon
Non-fiction, recently Buzz Sting Bite, about the world of insects, by Anne Svedrup Thygeson. ~Justice McCray, Cold Spring
Depends on my mood. Women of Will, non-fiction by Tina Packer about the women in Shakespeare’s plays, was great. ~Sarah Byrons, Cold Spring
