Open Season (Joe Pickett #1) by C.J. Box - A review
I was introduced to the writing of C.J. Box through my local library's Mystery Book Club. Open Season , the first in Box's Joe Pickett series, was the club's selection for reading in June. Although I didn't get a chance to read it in time for the meeting, the discussion of it made me curious and I put it on my to-be-read list. I'm glad I finally got around to it this week. Box has created an enormously appealing character in Joe Pickett. A Wyoming game warden, Joe is a devoted family man with two young daughters and a pregnant wife when we first meet him. He and his family are able to barely scrape by financially on the meager salary of a state employee (Been there, done that!) , but Joe is a happy man, because he's living his dream. Being a game warden was what he always wanted to be. Not only Joe but his whole family are lovingly drawn by Box. We get to know them well and to like them and want them not just to endure but to triumph. Seven-year-old Sherid
Lovely. I don't do well in wildlife photography - my subjects have to keep still.
ReplyDeleteWell, I probably take about a hundred shots for every one that turns out okay. Wildlife seldom cooperate.
DeleteI love your butterflies pics.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Carmen. I enjoy taking them.

ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI have many butterflies around lately. I am going to watch for this one.
ReplyDeleteThey are quite small and easily overlooked.
