Aug 9 - Fog by Kathryn Scanlan
I'm declining to rate what comes across as an oddity because it isn't enough on its own. It took about twenty minutes to read through this diary which was a real five-year diary the author found and then manipulated into a year's worth of entries. It was a step back in time to when my grandparents would have been about the same age as the diarist. So the language is familiar, the illnesses of townsfolk and family sandwiched with how pretty the day might have been or how the snowflakes were falling. If this sounds like I didn't like it, that's a wrong impression. But it's an artifact of a time before and to me, that's all.
