The book is over my head. I have not had a biology class since 10th grade. I previously read about the human genome project, but this book is about genes and their functions in the human body.

Nancy is 65% done with Holland House: A History of London's Most Celebrated Salon
A chronical of the whigs in the late 1700s and early 1800s. Politics, history and personalities. So interesting!

Nancy is starting Georgiana: Duchess of Devonshire
This is the second time I've tried to read this. I wish it were chronological. Maybe next year.

Georgiana: Duchess of Devonshire

Nancy
Nancy is on page 97 of 448 of Lady M: The Life and Loves of Elizabeth Lamb, Viscountess Melbourne 1751-1818
Some interesting facts I had no idea of. She came from a wealthy family, the Milbankes. Her marriage to Peniston Lamb combined two wealthy families. Peniston Lamb inherited a large fortune but was a "rake" in the vernacular of the time and spent copious amounts of money on an actress, his home Brocket Hall, a second home in London, decorating it, gambling, and horse races.
