Ryan Thompson is on page 50 of 208 of Inventing Hell: Dante, the Bible and Eternal Torment
While the author is a bit too flippant in their narrative for my taste, I am finding their connection between Dante' s Inferno and the modern Christian understanding of Hell rather fascinating.

Ryan Thompson is on page 25 of 272 of Mayflower Bastard: A Stranger Among the Pilgrims
Richard More is my 11th great grandfather, and it is interesting to learn of the seemingly dismal situations in England that is going to cause him to be on the Mayflower as a young boy.

Ryan Thompson is finished with Jurassic Park (Jurassic Park, #1)
Keeps it's magic no matter how many times I read it. Though I love the book, I do think the movie created a better character of John Hammond than the mean old man of the book.

Ryan Thompson is on page 30 of 276 of Mindset: The New Psychology of Success
Some good research placed on the idea that a positive attitude or "growth mindset" can increase the development of intelligence and personality. A lot of exciting classroom application found within as well!

Ryan Thompson is on page 50 of 390 of Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1)
Great story so far, though the foreshadowing has been way too heavy handed, even for a young adult novel.
