I just finished reading The House In The Pines by Ana Reyes. It's definitely worth a read. It's back in the Mystery/Thriller/Suspense section. Susan has offered to help you find it.

I just read and enjoyed these 2 back to back because the titles amused me!
If you are interested in either of these, Evelyn Hugo is at the front in General Fiction, and Evelyn Hardcastle is way in the back corner of the Mystery/Thriller/Suspense section.

Sweet Susan had her spay surgery this week. What do you think of her pretty pajamas?
Once she is healed up she will be ready to find her forever home. If you are interested in adopting Susan you can contact Valley Cats - Alberni Cat Rescue or come into the store and meet her:)
