**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
When Ellie Fields accepts a teaching job in a tiny Louisiana town deep in bayou country in 1949, she knows her life will change--but she could never imagine just how dramatically.

Though rightfully suspicious of outsiders, who have threatened both their language and their unique culture, most of the residents come to appreciate the young and idealistic schoolteacher, and she's soon teaching just about everyone, despite opposition from both the school board and a politician with ulterior motives. Yet it's the lessons Ellie herself will learn--from new friends, a captivating Cajun fisherman, and even a legendary white alligator haunting the bayou--that will make all the difference.

Take a step away from the familiar and enter the shadowy waters of bayou country for a story of risk, resilience, and romance.

Phenomenal
This is not my first book by Kevin Hearne, but it isby far my favorite. The world-building is comprehensive and flawless, the characters are relatable and fully actualized. The best part is that he is teaching the art of good story-telling while he tells one hell of a good story. The narrator for the audible book made it even better! I was so engrossed that I literally screamed in frustration when it was over and I realized I was going to have to wait for the next book to know what happens to Abhi and the others.

Great gateway game for deck building (0 more)
Rulebook can be confusing (0 more)
Dominion is a great game. It was one of the first deck building games I played and got me into them. The rulebook is not well written in my opinion and can take a few rereads to understand. Teaching other people how to play, however is quite easy if youve played a few games yourself. The game is always different as you never use the same set of cards, its random which ones will be included in the game you play. This gives it a high replay value.
