How I Killed Pluto and Why It Had It Coming |

pickI've been struggling to read lately. My focus is off. Anxiety high. But a few nights ago, I picked this one up from my TBR shelf and cracked it open. Little did I know, I would burn through it. I expected dry, informative science. What I got was a rollercoaster of drama, humor, frustration and lots of fascinating information. Highly recommend to fans of science and astronomy.
I got almost no pictures on my phone of me - my husband took this in Chicago this summer. We went to visit the aquarium - kids are huge fans.
Fun fact: I love nerdy T-shirts and I am still mourning Pluto. 🙁😎

I‘m on a book buying ban, but convinced myself that these ebook deals didn‘t count as breaking it. For $25 this is really just like buying two books which sounds a lot better than 12 lol.

pickA fun & informative book! Read quite some time ago, adding now for #planetinthetitle
pickI absolutely loved this easy-breezy memoir about the hunt and discovery of new planets that led to a new understanding of our solar system. Mike Brown interweaves the story of astronomical research with that of his marriage and the birth of her daughter - which makes it very compelling. The science is very clear; we learn of scientific methods, astronomer politics, and how newly discovered planets are named. Enjoyable, quick read. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was so moved by this - the scientist studying the planets and discovering several new exciting Pluto-sized objects still thinks the most extraordinary thing in the universe is his infant daughter.
❤❤❤❤
I am currently reading about the tragic demise of Pluto - and I find it an easy breezy, fun read. I often like a nonfiction to break up fiction, especially difficult reads.
I finished The Prince yesterday, which was also non-fiction, albeit very different.
