"Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat." by Dr. Hal Herzog
"Does living with a pet really make people happier and healthier? What can we learn from biomedical research with mice? Who enjoyed a better quality of life—the chicken on a dinner plate or the rooster who died in a Saturday-night cockfight? Why is it wrong to eat the family dog? Drawing on more than two decades of research in the emerging field of anthrozoology, the science of human–animal relations, Hal Herzog offers surprising answers to these and other questions related to the moral conundrums we face day in and day out regarding the creatures with whom we share our world. Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat is a highly entertaining and illuminating journey through the full spectrum of human–animal relations, based on Dr. Herzog’s groundbreaking research on animal rights activists, cockfighters, professional dog-show handlers, veterinary students, and biomedical researchers. Blending anthropology, behavioral economics, evolutionary psychology, and philosophy, Herzog carefully crafts a seamless narrative enriched with real-life anecdotes, scientific research, and his own sense of moral ambivalence." So far an interesting read. Having grown up around farming folks I remember the first lesson was always "If you are going to eat it, don't name it." Katniss~~ |

I started reading Wild by Cheryl Strayed
Its about a woman who, after a series of traumatic events, decides to hike the Pacific Crest Trail. I've read other memoirs where people do these things as a sort of sabbatical. Maybe that's why I'm drawn to the idea.... I SAY I just started reading it but I'm about 25% through already. One thing I do love about my job; it affords me a wonderful opportunity to read...

After finishing The Paying Guest by Sara Waters (which I enjoyed very much btw) I picked up
This Is Where I Leave You by Jonathan Tropper (Yes the movie out is based on this book). I am almost 3/4 of the way thru this book and have no idea why I continue to read it |

Lesbian Romance
I am so happy my copy of The Blush Factor by Gun Brooke JUST arrived!
I'm sure it will be the equivalent of those heterosexual harlequin romance novels, but that is just the type of escapism I'm looking for now |

Tonight I'm starting...
Made from Scratch: discovering the pleasures of a homemade life by Jenna Woginrich. This is the same author as Barnheart and I love her writing. However, if she whines about being single in this book too... I won't buy another!! Note about Wild...it was honest and endearing. The author bared her soul and its given me a lot to think about as far as my own motivators for wanting to hike the AT and MTS and now...despite the difficulties she wrote of..the PCT as well...its therapy...from the inside out. Bottom line...

10% Happier by Dan Harris
"After having a nationally televised panic attach on Good Morning America, Dan Harris knew he had to make some changes. After learning about research that suggests meditation can do everything from lower your blood pressure to essentially rewire your brain, Harris took a deep dive into the underreported world of CEOs, scientists, and even marines who are now using it for increased calm, focus, and happiness. "10% Happier" takes readers on a ride from the outer reaches of neuroscience to the inner sanctum of network news to the bizarre fringes of America's spiritual scene, and leaves them with a takeaway that could actually change their lives." Only about half way through I'm enjoying this. He's a good storyteller. |
