Rocky Raccoon Race Report

 

First, the good news: I DNF’d my 62-mile race at mile 48 because of an equipment malfunction. The waistlight that had been so reliable through many a prior ultra went kaput for no discernable reason. It’s possible that one of the times during this ultra that I tripped on an exposed root and faceplanted on the trail, the light broke my fall and broke itself in the process. Whatever the reason, I f

Are the descriptions of food necessary to the plot? Absolutely not. Are they delicious? For sure. Another entertaining book in this series. The romantic side story seems a bit thin to me but there are still some good characterizations -- and, of cour ...more

More fun with the slow horses. Catherine is my favorite character -- the dynamic between her and Jackson is fascinating.

On a lengthy road trip, I'm revisiting some of these books on audio and enjoying them once again. Fun and original, with an excellent reader (I love the way his voice imbues Temeraire with character). ...more

More fun with Siri and the gang. Some of the racist and ableist talk is pretty dreadful, but it's clearly reflecting the time and place (and the clearly less likable characters). ...more

4.5 stars. A fascinating mystery set in a location I know very little about. The setting and characters are so well drawn -- I found this engaging throughout. A fine audiobook version as well.

An enjoyable murder mystery, the first of a series. I had some quibbles with the POV switching from one paragraph to the next (a strategy that seldom works and usually just results in choppiness, as it does here), and some other minor issues, but ove ...more

One of the great joys of being a reader is discovering an author you haven't heard of before. I've read very little literature set in southeast Asia, possibly nothing at all set it Laos, so I was curious to start this series. Happily, I'll continue w ...more

Cheryl Strayed
“It had nothing to do with gear or footwear or the backpacking fads or philosophies of any particular era or even with getting from point A to point B.

It had to do with how it felt to be in the wild. With what it was like to walk for miles with no reason other than to witness the accumulation of trees and meadows, mountains and deserts, streams and rocks, rivers and grasses, sunrises and sunsets. The experience was powerful and fundamental. It seemed to me that it had always felt like this to be a human in the wild, and as long as the wild existed it would always feel this way.”
Cheryl Strayed, Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail

“There's no way to know what makes one thing happen and not another. What leads to what. What destroys what. What causes what to flourish or die or take another course.”

“How did you go bankrupt?"
Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.”

“Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.”

“Nothing will stop you being creative more effectively as the fear of making a
mistake.”
