This Tender Land

by William Kent Krueger
William Kent Krueger is such a talented writer I couldn't wait to get started on his newest book, THIS TENDER LAND.  He is a fabulous storyteller, and the story lends itself perfectly to his style of writing.  This is an exciting tale about four youths canoeing down the Mississippi River during the great depression.   #reading, #books to read, #books #beach read
