YOUR BOOK BEGINNING



MY BOOK BEGINNING



Of all the ways he could have died, drowning was the least likely.

-- Baker's Blues by Judith Ryan Hendricks.

This third book in Hendrick’s Bread Alone Trilogy finds baker Wyn Morrison in an emotion quandary, with her ex-husband dead, but Wyn the executor of his estate and forced to deal with one hot mess of memories and regrets. I want to make a weekend project of reading all three of the books in the trilogy.

  4. Hi Gilion,

    Those intriguing first lines had me searching Goodreads for the full premise, then the complete series!

    Whilst I am not going to be rushing to add them to my 'Want To Read' list just yet, they are definitely worth considering for the future, although I do agree with you, that perhaps they do need to be read in sequence and may not work too well as stand alone stories

    Have fun reading them :)

    Yvonne.
