You have to read this one! Then, listen to this book club episode. Did I like it? Did Sarah like it? You will have to listen to find out. And then let us know what you thought...   Life, and Death, and Giants by Ron Rindo Gabriel Fisher was born an orphan, weighing eighteen pounds and measuring twenty-seven inches long. No one in Lakota, Wisconsin, knows what to make of him. He walks at eight months, communicates with animals, and seems to possess extraordinary athletic talent. But when the older brother who has been caring for him dies, Gabriel is taken in by his devout Amish grandparents who disapprove of all the attention and hide him away from the English world. But it’s hard to hide forever when you’re nearly eight feet tall. At seventeen, Gabriel is spotted working in a hay field by the local football coach. What happens next transforms not only Gabriel’s life but the lives of everyone he meets. Life, and Death, and Giants is a moving story of faith, family, buried secrets, and everyday miracles.

It's the beginning of spooky season time and Sarah already has some recommendations for you.  If you don't like the spooky genre, I have a few titles for you. Either way, get your pen and paper ready to jot down your next read.   Sarah's Shelf: Big Little Truths by Liane Moriarty The Haunting of Maddy Clare by Simone St. James Mrs. Endicott's Splendid Adventure by Rhys Bowen   Jayme's Shelf: Lucky by Marissa Stapley It Could Have Been Her by Lisa Jewell
