The Long Winter by Laura Ingalls

Goodreads Blurb: On the empty winter prairie, gray clouds to the northwest meant only one thing: a blizzard was seconds away. The first blizzard came in October. It snowed almost without stopping until April. The temperature dropped to forty below. Snow reached the roof-tops. And no trains could get through with food and coal. The townspeople began to starve. The Ingalls family barely lived through that winter. And Almanzo Wilder knew he would have to risk his life to save the town.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Goodreads Review: By far and away one of the darkest of the series – can anyone say clinical depression, back breaking work in the snow and near starvation? – which is probably why this my favourite one.
