Halloween is my favorite time of year…I adore the chill in the air, the autumn leaves, and the lights and pumpkins that begin to adorn the homes around Ashland.
Especially exciting this year is the release of the final book in The Lithia Trilogy, The Last Mile, which is hot off the presses. As many of you know, the fictional “Lithia” bears quite a strong resemblance to Ashland … and in this final installment of the series, our heroine is tasked with saving the town from all but certain destruction.
Kirkus Reviews writes that “Lithia hasn’t lost a bit of its quirky, high-altitude allure,” and Vickie Aldous of the Ashland Daily Tidings writes, “Readers familiar with Ashland will have fun identifying local landmarks.”
