Schuler is pleased to welcome Katrina Kittle, author of The Kindness of Strangers, 2006 winner of the Great Lakes Book Award for Fiction. Katrina’s newest novel, The Blessings of the Animals, is a wry, engrossing and moving story of a veterinarian’s journey through the aftermath of divorce—all amidst a motley crew of animals. It’s already earning rave reviews, including one from Water For Elephants author Sara Gruen, who called it a “beautifully crafted novel….A must-read not only for animal lovers, but for anyone who has found the courage to come back from heartbreak and find love again, without reservation, without fear.” Enter at the event to win our drawing for a grab-bag of reading group titles!
