- Titanic Survivor by Violet Jessop
- From Here to Eternity by Caitlin Doughty
- Shady Hollow by Juneau Black
- Cold Clay by Juneau Black
- The Finest Hours by Michael J. Tougias
- The Perfect Son by Freida McFadden
I liked Shady Hollow and Cold Clay the most. These two books are part of a cozy mystery series and the characters are animals, with the main character being a fox. I don’t mind recommending them but they’re definitely not my usual read.
My least favorite read is The Perfect Son.
