All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr

The arc of this novel has tethered me to a long sweet wave that I cannot resist riding. Ok, enough poetic mush, but it's true...this book is damn good.

Well, you convinced me. I just added it to my library queue.

I am, of course, still waiting for Erik Larson's newest book which is due out in March, this coming spring ... Dead Awake (is the title, I think). Situated during the post-Edwardian era, and connecting with the history surrounding the Titanic, it's a story of factual events that transpired on the Lusitania (the ship that picked up the surviving passengers of the Titanic).

I've also been reading up on other companies, conducting miniature studies, of possible places for employment, in the near future.

Just started Finding Beauty in a Broken World by Terry Tempest Williams.

I'm pretty excited to have rediscovered this author, even though I'm only maybe 40 pages in. I first read Refuge when I was in college and I can say it was a seriously influential book to me (and a contributing force for me moving west). As it turns out my sister just started working/assisting Terry via a land conservation group and she recently sent the book to me.

The official blurb for Finding Beauty in a Broken World:
"Shards of glass can cut and wound or magnify a vision," Terry Tempest Williams tells us. "Mosaic celebrates brokenness and the beauty of being brought together." Ranging from Ravenna, Italy, where she learns the ancient art of mosaic, to the American Southwest, where she observes prairie dogs on the brink of extinction, to a small village in Rwanda where she joins genocide survivors to build a memorial from the rubble of war, Williams searches for meaning and community in an era of physical and spiritual fragmentation. In her compassionate meditation on how nature and humans both collide and connect, Williams affirms a reverence for all life, and constructs a narrative of hopeful acts, taking that which is broken and creating something whole.

Currently reading The Descent Series By S M Reine someone turned me on to this author and I am loving it I have already finished two other of her series and really got hooked. She has a way of drawing you into the story and not letting go. I can not seem to put the books down
