Why Not?
I remember how infuriating our son, the second born, could be.
I remember from ages 3 to 18 (when he went off to college, phew) our darling boy asking not “why?” but “why not?”
I remember a hundred Why Nots a day – why not go to his friend’s house at 10 p.m.; why not eat a whole box of Oreo cookies in one sitting; why not skip school when it’s sunny and he can hike in the hills next doo

The Proving Ground (The Lincoln Lawyer, #8; Harry Bosch Universe, #41)
by Michael Connelly (Goodreads Author) |

| Excellent thoughts about how AI influences and confuses human beings, particularly young people who are at the edge of their innocence, asking a computer how to love and live. The effects are devastating, and Connelly once again shows us through a co ...more | |

| 3.5 stars. I couldn't finish the book. I wanted to like it - excellent subject matter, but the women were too vapid for me, and each of their story's too predictable and not as complicated as real life. ...more | |

| I admit, I read some of the other comments here before writing my own review. As a writer myself, I think some of the reviews of The Vacationers are bitter and mean. Halfway through the book, I wasn't sure I'd continue because I didn't like any of th ...more | |

| I read Oh William three years ago and gave it 4 stars. Why? This time I was engrossed with the story, with Lucy, and with the amazing writing of Elizabeth Strout. I don't mind rereading her books, and they don't have to be in order. Five stars. ...more | |

The Reversal (The Lincoln Lawyer, #3; Harry Bosch Universe, #22)

| Excellent book (how does Connelly keep writing such great reads?). I was attached to the story page by page. | |

| As other reviewers have mentioned, the book takes a while to get into. I found it dark and depressing and hard to "like" the main character. And of course I despised the men in the beginning chapters. But I stuck with the book (because several friend ...more | |

| Wow. Chris Bohjalian makes his readers think, flinch, wonder, learn and grow. At least in his best books, he does. The Jackal's Mistress, which I listened to through Audibles, was an uncomfortable at times, intense, deep, fabulous, nerve-wracking, se ...more | |
“Photographers are writers- Writers are photographers: we catch a glimpse of something beautiful – a flower, a glance, a window – and catch it into our camera or writing lens: add a bit of glimmer, a ghost of shadow, allowing the background to sink into fuzziness while focusing on the sharp beauty; thus, we highlight the romance of life.”

“Reality, in fact, is usually something you could not have guessed. That is one of the reasons I believe Christianity. It is a religion you could not have guessed. If it offered us just the kind of universe we had always expected, I should feel we were making it up. But, in fact, it is not the sort of thing anyone would have made up. It has just that queer twist about it that real things have. So let us leave behind all these boys' philosophies--these over simple answers. The problem is not simple and the answer is not going to be simple either.”
