For fun, I just started "Fellside" by M. R. Carey. I loved "The Girl With All the Gifts" so much by the same author that I had to see what this one was about!

I finished "Fellside" several days ago and it was good. Entertaining if a little psychic-dramery.

Downloaded "City of Mirrors" by Justin Cronin. It's the final in his "Passage" series and a hefty 30 hours on audio. But I've got a road trip coming up and several days during Thanksgiving so I think I can get through it.

School is out in 3 weeks and I never want to read another Education Policy book as long as I live.

I found an interesting book to read, the other day, while wandering around the skilled nursing facility (pt/ot rehab).

Title : King Larry | The Life and Ruins Of A Billionaire Genius.
Author: James D. Scurlock.
Publisher: Scribner, 2012.


I've only read the introduction, a mere few pages, but the author gives meticulous attention to the man who gave birth to DHL, which was doing business long before FedEx (50 year head start) and how Larry Hillblom was not only a business genius but how his behavioral choices, hiding in plain sight, would be the long remembered undoing of his so called financial empire (and not his business acumen).

I haven't even finished with chapter one and already give it a huge props. Very good book. Very enlightening. Tragic story.

Default They left us everything : a memoir / Plum Johnson.

After almost twenty years of caring for elderly parents -- first for their senile father, and then for their cantankerous ninety-three-year old mother -- author Plum Johnson and her three younger brothers have finally fallen to their middle-aged knees with conflicted feelings of grief and relief.

Now they must empty and sell the beloved family home, twenty-three rooms bulging with history, antiques, and oxygen tanks. Plum thought: How tough will that be?

I know how to buy garbage bags. But the task turns out to be much harder and more rewarding than she ever imagined.

Items from childhood trigger difficult memories of her eccentric family growing up in the 1950s and '60s, but unearthing new facts about her parents helps her reconcile those relationships, with a more accepting perspective about who they were and what they valued.

They Left Us Everything is a funny, touching memoir about the importance of preserving family history to make sense of the past, and nurturing family bonds to safeguard the future.

ever hear of Christopher Barzak? Barzack? He writes these incredible horror novels that make my spine tingle as I read....his way with words breath life into every page and I often cant put his books down until completely read. One of them was recently made into a movie. I am reading one now about a young man who finds a long dead girl shape shifted into a red fox, while he is living in Japan against his will. Keeps me up at night for hours....

Default Two at a time

I'm reading bits and pieces of two books currently

Brainstorm: The Power and Purpose of the Teenage Brain - an interesting read on neuropsychology by Daniel Siegel

Blind to Betrayal: Why We Fool Ourselves We Aren't being Fooled - about the reasons people tend to "bond" with those who are abusive to them by Jennifer Freyd (she's got a research lab at the University of Oregon)

I do sometimes read for purely pleasure though often read related to my work, which is the reason for my current choices. A move about 2 years ago has lead to the loss of a huge public library system resulting in less pleasure reading since I don't want to buy those books.

Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Mathematicians Who Helped Win the Space Race by Margot Lee Shetterly

I'm enjoying it, and while I am looking forward to seeing the movie I think this will be another case where the book is much better than the movie.

The Year of Voting Dangerously: by Maureen Dowd


I like her writing style especially her OP EDS in the NYT but this is the first book of her's I've read.

After hearing her on Seth Meyers the other night I think it's going to be something I'll enjoy!

Default Taproot Magazine

My close family & best friend gave me a current issue of Taproot magazine. The magazine is published in the state of Vermont, which features articles and stories about food, plant life, homesteading, art, and numerous other subjective and objective topics of interest. I am currently reading an article about a Pacific Northwest couple who homestead for a living, with interest for bee keeping and harvest of honey. Title of the article is: Sweet As Honey.

I highly recommend this magazine because the style of writing and subject interest is exceptionally outstanding, very enjoyable.

For more information, look up their website:

I started reading All the light We Cannot See.

One of the tellers at my bank read it and loved it. I don't read enough fiction and it's always good to find something that keeps my interest.

So far so good.

I read that book, not long ago.
The story is well crafted . I don't know exactly how to describe it without spoiling it for you, but I really liked how various strands of the story were woven together. Metaphor, tons of metaphor. I kept the book too, rather than trade it in for another book. I hope you really enjoy the book --- All The Light We Cannot See.

Default The End Of America

Naomi Wolf. -This book takes a historical look at the rise of fascism, outlining the ten steps necessary for a state to take control of individual lives. This book also explains how this pattern was followed in Nazi Germany and Mussolini's Italy, as well as elsewhere, and compares it to the current state of affairs in American Political power since Sept. 11, 2001.
