Rachel, I hope that you enjoyed the Borrowers, my daughter and I read that earlier this year.


The White Dragon by Anne McCaffery, 1978, 468p. I preferred the Harper Hall trilogy, but this wrapped up both trilogies.

Kindred by Ocavia Butler, 1979. 264p. I really liked this book. It combined some fantasy time travel with slave narratives. Very thoughtful and the Kindle edition included some interesting commentary at the end.

Greyfriar's Bobby by Eleanor Atkinson, 1905, 280p. I enjoyed this rambling book. Reminded me of the time I studied abroad in Edinburgh.
