Tell The Wolves I'm Home by Carol Rifka Brunt - In addition to the obvious brilliance of the title and the cover, this is my current best book and top recommendation if anyone asks. And maybe even if they don't ask, because I just wanted to savor each and every page, and I did for the past 4 days. Tell The Wolves I'm Home is beautifully written, and about love, and our narrator and protagonist is a 14 year old who is both clueless and wise beyond her years. She has this wonderful honest voice, though; it's the kind of story I've been loving since I was that same 14 year old girl, on the edge of adulthood, and so smart, but still so far away from my future. It's about June, Finn, Greta and Toby, New York, and secrets and misunderstandings, but these few words don't capture the magic and emotion that make up this beautiful story.
Her Heart On Her Sleeve: I live in a suburb north of Chicago, and I read, bead, make jewelry, sew, watch TV and movies, crochet, craft, decorate, go to house and garage sales, walk and go on beach walks, listen to music, take pictures, cook and bake, read, and write about all of it on herheartonhersleeve. I have a companion blog called Jewlery by Dianne Sophia at diannesophia.blogspot.com where I write exclusively about my jewelry.
Jewelry By Dianne Sophia: I have been collecting vintage jewelry since I was a girl growing up in Detroit, and have been designing and making jewelry for 15 years. I love to work with pearls and crystals, semi-precious stones, Sterling Silver and Gold, along with vintage beads and materials. I delight in combining shape, pattern and color in new ways. I'm inspired and influenced by my travels and experiences as a reader, writer, photographer and student of life. My blog herheartonhersleeve.blogspot.com chronicles my life in art and popular culture.
