A review for the nonfiction book Hell’s Half-Acre by Susan Jonusas. This book is about a small family in Kansas in the late 1800’s who murdered 11 people just so they could steal their few possessions. This story focuses mainly on how their murders were discovered and the people who tried to track them down and bring them to justice.

This is a review for the nonfiction book Field Notes From a Fungi Forager by Ashley Rodriguez. I really enjoyed this book that focuses on mushrooms and fungi that can be found around the Pacific Northwest. The author does a great job of telling how to identify the different species, but also includes ideas on how to cook them.

This book has it all and it is told in a very accessible and humorous way.
