Putting this one on hold. Maybe better done online, in class, where I can concentrate.

moving to abandoned - too much of a Mickey Rooney vibe.

"That's because George was a cat!" or

"the boy grew up to be Abraham Lincoln!"

You get the picture. Also, highly predictable, no real suspense.

Going to move this one to abandoned. Interesting, but just too much.

So much of this is over my head, but who cares, it’s a DK book!

Another book about the bible that will convince you there is nothing special about this man-made tome.

Another DK book - Healing foods? Who cares….. But fun to read.

Slow going, but interesting.

I fucking love DK books. Don’t even care what it’s about - I will learn something.

Jaysus, this a hauntingly beautiful book.

Just started it and already a quote worthy sentence: "Blood pumped into microgravity behaves oddly, like a living thing, unbound and restless, drifting, cooling. Never falling."

I don't usually update as I read, but this book deserves a plug. It was a slow start, enough so that I contemplated not going on, but am so glad I persevered.

The writing is beautiful and as you start to recognize elements of the story that you somewhat know, you are pulled in further and further.

A lovely piece.
