Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
It is one of my favorite books and I have read it many times especially when I need to be brave or strong in my own soul and convictions, no matter what outside circumstances are. The book bolsters me.

Dracula ~ Bram Stoker
My daughter is reading it for English class, so I figured I'd reread along with her so we can have fun book discussions.

Eric Larsson's newest book won't be published until March of next year. I can hardly wait.
I've been reading from stacks of archived iterature on what used to be considered leading research on scientific discoveries of aquatic plants and deep sea, ocean life. It's fairly interesting, becsuse of the style of language and delivery of subject.

couple three months ago or so, I bought the book:
THE GIFT OF FEAR Read some of it and then lost it. Probably in a pile of programming books at work. I bought another copy and am settling back into it. I think we all here should read it. I am bad about not paying attention to my gut feelings in potentially dangerous situations when I am alone and angry ... that is pretty stupid of me. Trying to retrain myself. |

Excellent Read
Still Alice
Neuroscientist and debut novelist Genova mines years of experience in her field to craft a realistic portrait of early onset Alzheimer's disease. Alice Howland has a career not unlike Genova's—she's an esteemed psychology professor at Harvard, living a comfortable life in Cambridge with her husband, John, arguing about the usual (making quality time together, their daughter's move to L.A.) when the first symptoms of Alzheimer's begin to emerge. First, Alice can't find her Blackberry, then she becomes hopelessly disoriented in her own town. Alice is shocked to be diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's (she had suspected a brain tumor or menopause), after which her life begins steadily to unravel. |

From the library....
Homegrown Tea by Cassie Liversidge It's all about growing things you can make tea out of. It goes beyond herbs to common flowers and roots. And to think, this thought did occur to me when I planted some ginger root the other day since it was sprouting...

Just finished Peeps by Scott Westerfeld. If you like thinking about diseases, parasites, vectors and hosts, and combining all that with (yet another) theory on the origins of vampires, you'll like this book.
The fictional narrative is pretty gruesome, but even more gruesome (and fascinating) are the interspersed chapters that describe non-fictional parasites and the very real ways that the host's behavior changes to accommodate the parasite. Example: Rats infected with the parasite that causes toxoplasmosis become attracted to the smell of cat pee. They seek it out, increasing their chances of finding the cat it belongs to, and increasing the parasite's chances of getting into a cat's gut, which is the only place it can start its reproductive cycle. Nifty, huh? All the real examples of the mechanisms of disease strengthen the story, and makes it seem that much more plausible... or at least really enjoyable. Highly recommended.

Preparing to bring this to the stage...
Sholem Asch's Yiddish drama God of Vengeance (1907)
"The play proved so potent when it was translated into English and performed on Broadway in 1923 that the entire cast was arrested on obscenity charges." |

I just started reading...
Barnheart: The incurable longing for a farm of one's own by Jenna woginrich I discovered the author while reading Greenhorns; she contributed my favorite essay in the book. She also is an incredible source of encouragenent for fledgling future farmers ( like myself )As an aside to mt fellow readers....do any of you put off finishing a book you particularly like? Or perhaps avoid an ending not to your liking by putting the book aside...? Just curious
