Booksie's Shelves, September 3, 2016

September is here and there is hope of summer heat and humidity dissipating in the coming weeks.  Here in North Carolina we've had a fairly brutal summer and fall can't come too soon to suit me.  I spend most super-hot days inside so you'd think I would have read more than ten books in August but Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Acorn TV takes up a lot of reading time.  Here's the books that have come through the door lately:

1.  Echoes Of Family, Barbara Claypole White, literary fiction, sent by publisher
2.  The Sound Of A Wild Snail Eating, Elisabeth Tova Bailey, nonfiction, sent by publisher
3.  The Orphan Mother, Robert Hicks, historical fiction, Vine review book
