The only thing on my mind right now is potatoes and onions. I have been watching YouTube videos on growing potatoes for the past few days and I have to say, it is INVOLVED! I just finished a three part series on growing potatoes, and now I am going to go back and take notes. I have to make sure I get the right combination of soil, and choose the right variety of potato. Location, location, location. There is always the option of just saving the money, buying my potatoes at the store, and skipping all the trouble. But that’s not what I am going to do am I?
Balancing on Blue: A Thru-Hiking Adventure on the Appalachian Trail
by Mr Keith Foskett
Genre: Travel | Sports | Health, Fitness & Dieting | Teen & Young Adult
FREE for a limited time
Amazing journeys begin with a single step, but only the dedicated keep walking.
Short-listed for Outdoor Book of the Year by The Great Outdoors Magazine
Every year thousands of adventurers attempt to hike all 2,180 miles of the gruelling and unforgiving Appalachian Trail. Around five months later, beaten and bruised, those who finish are known as thru-hikers.
Keith Foskett weaves a true-life tale that’s as thought-provoking as it is entertaining. Accompanied by an array of eclectic characters – including a world-champion juggler, a drug dealer, and a sex-starved builder from Minnesota – he takes the reader on a compelling adventure that pushes the limits of both endurance and imagination.
During his five months living in the woods, Foskett’s psychological apprehensions are stretched to the limit against the wild elements of nature. By turns humorous and harrowing, his journey allows him to overcome his fears while reflecting on the man he’s meant to be. His adventure weaves a route through some of America’s wildest landscapes and history, and is told with insight, humour and reflection.
Perhaps he too will tame the most renowned long-distance hiking trail in the world, and emerge as a thru-hiker.

Winter’s Law
by Stephen Penner
Genre: Literature & Fiction | United States | Thrillers
FREE for a limited time
From Stephen Penner, the author of the top-rated David Brunelle Legal Thriller Series, comes the provocative new courtroom drama, WINTER’S LAW.
Criminal defense attorney Talon Winter takes on the case of her life–and her client’s.
Michael Jameson is a successful, forty-something, African American husband and father. And he’s just been charged with a 25-year-old cold case murder, a gang-related drug deal gone horribly wrong. Talon agrees to take the case, but the one question she needs answered is the one question Michael refuses to answer: Did he do it?
Michael insists it doesn’t matter. He’s not the same person he was twenty-five years ago. He’s built a new life in the intervening years, and nothing that happens now will bring the victim back. Instead, he poses a far more provocative question: Would the legal system reach back that far to take away everything built up by a successful White man?
Talon must battle the system itself–as well as a condescending prosecutor, reluctant witnesses, and even her own client–to achieve that most elusive of goals: Justice.
