The Extra Day

New month, new episode, new book! A real thrilling tale this time around folks, we're diving into The Extra Day, by Algernon Blackwood, and I gotta tell ya, this has to have been one of my favorites that I've read on the show so far. There's a real, palpable sense of naturalistic wonder that suffuses every line here, and that calls my mind back to a childhood favorite, The Secret Garden. I do hope you find just as much whimsy in this little tale as I do! I'll have to dig further on Blackwood's work, even if his other tales lean a little farther into horror than is usual around here, his writing is captivating enough to weather that change!
