I just stumbled upon your podcast and am enjoying the first 5:26 minutes! lol I wanted to jump in and tell you my favorite author who has only written 2 memoirs and a fiction story. BUT . . . . her writing is absolutely amazing--her description, her true life events depicted incredibly by the way she puts words together--Susan Richards. Start with "Chosen by a Horse." I have her books in audio and I listen to them again and again so I can be re-delighted over and over with her style, writing talent and how her life evolved and she became much more whole, etc. OK. Now I will finish your podcast! lol

Both of these are excellent audible. A Lovely War by Julie Berry. This is world War 1 and 2 told in the eyes of the mythical Greek gods. Don't knock it. Even my friends dad couldn't wait to hear more on a road trip they did listening to it. It is a tiny but "aphrodite" in the beginning but I don't do open door romance and I don't remember it being terrible. It was recommended in a homeschool mom group lol A Place to Hang the Moon by Kate Albus. It's a teen book but I tune in every time my daughter is listening to it around the house.

I thought you had been knitting for ages. You are so accomplished with your designing and knitting. I enjoyed The Thursday Murder Club. I recommend listening to that one. It has different people reading the parts. I really enjoyed Hester by Albanese. Apples Never Fall by Moriarty is another good one. I actually listened to all of these, and they were well done. Kim

Hi Emily, I just received my very first order from you & I am so, so happy. I stocked up on DK for socks and can't wait to get started knitting. If you enjoy the Shetland series and the new Matthew Venn books you might want to check out the Vera series by Ann Cleeves. I am an Audible reader and love a good murder mystery, suspense or police procedural. Lately I have been delving into some Icelandic mystery series by Arnaldur Indridason and Ragnar Jonasson. They are very dark but keep me fully engaged and excited about the next page. Happy knitting!

Always wonderful catching up with you, Emily! I started out with crochet too. When I found Ravelry, it blew my mind with all the inspiration. Up until that point, I was a very basic knitter. Like you, It really inspired me to go beyond the basics of knitting. You’re so generous to celebrate your milestone birthday in that way. Thanks for sharing. ❤

A Soul As Cold As Frost series by Jennifer Kropf. This book is intended for teens. I read the series earlier this year and found the writing beautiful. The wives of Henry the Viii series by Alison Weir is very good if you like historical fiction. Maisie Dobbs book series by Jacqueline Winspear is a great mystery series.

I was very interested in your sharing your love of books. I, too, am a picky reader. I love the classics, and Jane Austen is probably my favorite. Please, please, please try Louise Penny’s Armand Gamache series. She is a wonderful writer and has a good heart and soul, as evidenced in her amazing characters. I am so thankful that I found her very special books.

Some book recommendations: Out of the Dust by Karen Hesse (it seems like a middle school book, but I found it very moving); Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon (historical fiction about a real 18th century midwife); An Episode of Sparrows by Rumer Godden (this one had me hooked at the first sentence); I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith (I have reread this one at least three times); The Whalebone Theatre by Joanna Quinn.

I wonder if you could take the leather piece off your jumbo flyer maiden and just soak it in leather. Also if you over ply your yarn you can run it back through and remove twist. Its always better to over ply than under.
