#LibFaves25 Day 2:
THE GALES OF NOVEMBER: THE UNTOLD STORY OF THE EDMUND FITZGERALD by John U. Bacon
Fantastic book that covers SO much more than the shipwreck itself. Details the lives of the crew, how important Great Lakes shipping is, and the danger involved (worse than ocean sailing).

A rare Saturday off, so spent the morning the best way I know how: shopping at Eastern Market, having a drink at Detroit City Distillery, and now home putting things away while listening to @wdet.bsky.social and Ann Delisi.b

I did as requested, and read the final lines just as the "la-la-la-las" of "Don't You (Forget About Me)" hit. This was a fun one, @djangowexler.bsky.social. Thanks for some fun books when I needed them.

Really sad to be hearing that Peter David has passed. I am a huge Spider-Man 2099 fan, and also loved his Star Trek novel work, especially the New Frontier novels. RIP
