I’m really excited to participate in @books-and-cookies Aprilread4aday Readathon!

My goal for the day is to finish Silvia Moreno-Garcia’s Gods of Jade and Shadow and hopefully Aaron Mahnke’s The World of Lore: Monstrous Creatures.

The brave faces looking at us over the broken rail of a wreck, and of the echo of a great hymn sung by the women through the fog and mist and flying spray.

Screams of women and children mingled in an awful chorus with the shrieking of the wind, the dash of rain, and the roar of the breakers. As the passengers rushed of deck they were carried away in bunches by the huge waves that seemed as high as the ship’s mastheads. The ship began to break up almost at once and the women and children were lashed to the rigging above the reach of the sea. It was a pitiful sight to see frail women, wearing only night dresses, with bare feet on the freezing ratlines, trying to shield children in their arms from the icy wind and rain.
