Just completed #30 (book w/ pics) - Julie of the Wolves by Jean Craighead George. I must have read this book as a child, but I didn't remember, which means it didn't make much of an impression at the time. I appreciate George's description of life in the arctic and understand the sentiment behind her narrative. However, it bothered me that the story began in the middle and rather abruptly ended. I will not read the next book. 2.5 stars5/30
