From Inside My Book Fort - - - "Still Life" by Louise Penny


It's another snowy day here in Meat Camp.  




Perfect for spending some time inside my book fort reading.






Today Annabelle and I will be reading from Louise Penny's first novel, "Still Life."






Enjoy!



From Booklist

*Starred Review* The residents of a tiny Canadian village called Three Pines are shocked when the body of Miss Jane Neal is found in the woods. Miss Neal, the village's retired schoolteacher and a talented amateur artist, has been a good friend to most of the townsfolk, so her loss is keenly felt. At first, her death appears to be a tragic accident--it's deer-hunting season, and it looks a stray hunter's arrow killed her. But some folks are suspicious, and Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of the Montreal Surete is called in to investigate. Accompanying Gamache are his loyal assistant Beauvoir and Yvette Nichol, a new addition to Gamache's team. The trio soon finds that the seemingly peaceful, friendly village hides dark secrets. The truth is both bizarre and shocking, even to the jaded Gamache and his team. This is a real gem of a book that slowly draws the reader into a beautifully told, lyrically written story of love, life, friendship, and tragedy.

When I close my eyes, I can sit in that book fort with you while you read from my favorite author's book. Beautiful, Kaye. Thank you for taking me to Three Pines.
