The Summer Tree by Guy Gavriel Kay.

As the weather begins to warm and the snow melts off the mountains in the distance, it is that time of year when my feet get itchy to once again marvel in the Idaho wilderness and enjoy the beautiful weather.  In the bookstore, I find myself gravitating towards the Idaho outdoors section planning upcoming camping trips, scoping out new places to fly fish, or a previously unexplored hiking trail.

Working at Rediscovered Books always brings a lot of pleasant surprises. However,one of the best ones is the large number of Idaho authors that we have both in the Treasure Valley and on our store shelves, both in fiction and non-fiction for all age groups.  

If you have ever visited our Once and Future location, you will definitely know Jane!  If you have not visited our secondhand book store, you should.  Jane will send you home with your next "best read".

A few weeks ago, I wrote a blog about some of the staff’s hidden gems.  Not to play favoritism, I am writing a Part 2 to this and then there will be a Part 3 just to make sure that everyone gets their hidden gems shared!

We live for stories. Throughout human history, the telling and retelling of tales has enriched and fulfilled lives. From cave paintings depicting grand hunting adventures to Anthony Doerr’s Cloud Cuckoo Land today, we seek out the exploits of others and in so doing we learn more about ourselves. Those stories become more alive when we share them with other people.
