![]() Lewt joins a group of men Duncan hand selected to travel to Whispering Mountain and meet his three female cousins. Lewt has never done anything brave and never plans to. He leaves his law practice to join a raid at the border. Duncan, a Texas Ranger, is off to fight at the border and Lewt, a gambler, plans to find a wife among one of Duncan’s three rich cousins while his friend is away.ĭuncan, called Duck when he was a boy, is wild and fearless. I opened in 1875, with two friends parting ways one stormy night in Austin. I am very excited about TEXAS BLUE, the first book in the new generation of the Whispering Mountain Series. From the day I was walking in the Hill Country near Fredericksburg, Texas, the story of the McMurray family has been playing in my head. ![]() I hope all my fans will step into Texas history and enjoy the adventure. ![]() To celebrate, she’s here talking about the series. Today Jodi Thomas‘ next installment in the Whispering Mountain series, Texas Blue, is available. ![]() ![]() ![]() This is exactly the kind of book I want to read to my daughter, and I wish I could hand a copy to every kid. ![]() This sad but heartening work reminds us how important it is that we care for our neighbors, and in so doing, we may discover we are not so different-a message that our children need now, more than ever."-Bao Phi, author of A Different Pond-Other Print "With the clear, careful, and beautiful language we've come to expect from her, Kao Kalia Yang unfurls her first children's book, a journey waiting to reward our every step.

But the main reason is that the plot alone won’t be what compels you to continue with the series. First one being these are not standalone books and they tell a full, continuous story so talking about some details would spoil the books. Though this is a series review, I don’t plan on talking much about the plot for a few reasons. After such an emotional reading journey, how can I possibly pick up another book and expect to move on? I can’t, and there is no book that can save me from this book hangover. It’s true these books broke my heart, but in the best way possible: not by wearing it down but by filling it with so much love for these characters it bursts. Yet it’s not a reading experience I would ever change. It is both a blessing and a curse to have read these books for I will always have this eternal ache in my heart that can never be soothed, names such as Tessa, Will, and Jem will immediately remind me of these characters and the tears will well fast. My puny heart just wasn’t made to process a story so epic and grand such as this one. ![]() ![]() No matter how much I thought I was emotionally prepared to take on this series, I wasn’t. ![]() ![]() ![]() Unlike JB and Malcolm, Jude does not have any family support, and because of his disabilities and health problems, Jude is keenly aware that having more money will make his life more comfortable as his physical condition deteriorates.

He likely could have been successful in a wide range of professions. Jude is depicted as highly intelligent and talented in many areas. What is the significance of Jude's choice of profession? ![]() ![]() ![]() I don’t even really want to share this–it’s terrifying. I’m not saying this for pity or attention. ![]() It’s been seven months since that day, and I can still feel the despair that wracked through my body whenever I think back. What was I supposed to say? I feel like I’m going to kill myself? I’m ideating on how to make it look like an accident so I don’t hurt anyone else? I dialed 911 and let my finger hover over the call button, terrified that this was my end. I couldn’t put what I was going through on anyone else. I opened a few contacts, almost pressed call, and then put my phone down. I couldn’t call my mom–this would break her heart. ![]() I resorted to laying rigid with fear, staring at the ceiling for hours on end, thinking this was it. ![]() ![]() ![]() Each day's walk is accompanied by the relevant sections of the Ordnance Survey map and is vividly illustrated throughout giving archaeological, historical, botanical and local anecdotal detail.
