Hokusai   Matthi Forrer
Beautiful collection of woodblock prints and paintings by the late 18th-century Japanese artist. Really enjoyed browsing through this book again.

Snow Angels   James Thompson
Gripping novel about a police detective in a small town in northern Finland investigating the very brutal murder of a film star. Complicated character and relationships, and kind of depressing like the weeks of total darkness around Christmas. Plan to read the next two in the series.

This Was America   Martin W. Sandler
Collection of photographs taken between 1890 and 1910. Interested because this toward the end of Mary Ann Burnham Freeze’s life. Disappointing for me because they are concentrated in the Eastern U.S. But it was worth it.
