rated a book it was amazing

| Brilliant and powerful, made me chuckle and made me sad (as Saunders pretty much always does). A keeper. Highly recommended. Don't want to ruin anything with spoilers. Thought I'd find the illustrations beside the point or annoying, but they are grea ...more | |

| Entertaining, but a little simplistic, even for middle-grade readers. It's supposed to help foster interest in and appreciation of scientists, but the information included in the story feels so beyond basic, I have to wonder what's being taught in sc ...more | |

rated a book it was ok
|
|
| Almost rated 3 stars because the illustrations are super cute! But the book is overly long, tedious, and seems geared toward those about to graduate high school, or maybe college freshmen. A "gifty" sort of book for a niece, perhaps, or a young co-wo ...more | |

| Won this in a Goodreads Giveaway (thanks, Goodreads!), and though I found the parallel life studies interesting, there wasn't a lot of meat. The thousands of hours of research involved were mostly about finding people to pair with similar "cliffs" in ...more | |

“After Years
Today, from a distance, I saw you
walking away, and without a sound
the glittering face of a glacier
slid into the sea. An ancient oak
fell in the Cumberlands, holding only
a handful of leaves, and an old woman
scattering corn to her chickens looked up
for an instant. At the other side
of the galaxy, a star thirty-five times
the size of our own sun exploded
and vanished, leaving a small green spot
on the astronomer's retina
as he stood on the great open dome
of my heart with no one to tell.”
