I went to this presentation last year at the History Center of Olmsted County, Rochester, Minn. It was excellent. I encourage you to attend this year’s virtual presentation. You can enjoy from anywhere! It’s a wonderful love story. And true, discovered when the author began researching her family history and was given a bundle of letters the her grandfather and his first love exchanged. Incredibly sweet.

It’s tomorrow! 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. Tickets still available!

1. I’m very much enjoying this wonderful memoir:

World of Wonders by Aimee Nezhukumatahil

It was the Barnes & Noble 2020 Book of the Year.

2. And last year I truly loved the 2019 Barnes & Noble Book of the Year:

The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse by Charlie Mackesy

It makes me happy. I’ve read it several times.
