Gabby Barrera gabby_barrera — A short but very touching novel. Ella Barron runs a boarding house in a small town in Texas, during the depression, and has an autistic son, Solly. This story is set in 1934, when a new boarder, Mr. Rainwater, moves in. He is dying from cancer, a secret only his doctor and Ella know. He is very good and patient with Solly, and befriends him and tries to break through his barriers. As the local community deals with a government program to shoot their starving livestock, they also face trouble from racist Conrad Ellis, a greedy meat packer who does not want the starving citizens to take any of the meat from their cattle after they are shot. Mr. Rainwater steps in the side of the townspeople and tries to help, knowing that since he is dying, he has nothing to lose. Throughout all this, Ella and Mr. Rainwater quietly begin to fall in love. I really enjoyed this novel, and I admired Ella for raising her son and not sticking him into an institution, as many people did with autistic children in those days, especially when autism didn't have a name back then. I also learned something about the depression that I did not know before; the government program of buying up sickly and starving cattle below market price, and shooting most of them. A very hard thing for the families to go through emotionally, even if they desperately needed that money.

Negar Megan negar006e8a8 — This is a great book. A mystery set in an alternative universe where it's 1985 in England, the Crimean War is still ongoing, Wales is self governing, dodos are back from the dead, and literary crimes are one of the worst offences. Very different, the humour is very dry, and an light hearted read. Very good.
