Chita: a memory of Last Island is also a #booksetinmycity even if it mostly takes place outside of New Orleans proper. #readjanuary @RealLifeReading

"Then the Wind grew weird. It ceased being a breath; it became a Voice moaning across the world,—hooting —uttering nightmare sounds,—Whoo!—whoo!—whoo!—and with each stupendous owl-cry the mooing of the waters seemed to deepen, more and more abysmally, through all the hours of darkness."

/Everybody in the storm's path stay safe.

A lovely novella, loosely based on a real hurricane.
