The Wives of Los Alamos | 
pickThis book was fascinating! I love fiction on topics I know nothing about, so this was naturally a winner. Told through first person plural - we and ours - the book tells the stories of the wives of Manhattan Project scientists as a collective. What would it have been like to raise your family in the desert, to not know what your husbands were doing, to fight dust every day? So illuminating. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
#melodiousmusicals @CrowCAH This book had plenty of spunky upbeat women & very little #sobbinwomen even though they lived in veiled secrecy with their families & husbands for three years. The book is written in first person plural making for an interesting narrative, I thought it worked really well🤓
On a date with my husband. Our 9 year anniversary will be on the 16th so we left the kids with the inlaws and decided to play tourist in our own city. We went to old town which is the plaza area that Albuquerque originated around. There is a local bookstore amounts the tourist traps 😀Stay tuned for my findings which include this one I got on sale for $5.95! We are now at a local brewery for some relaxation. 🍻#booksandbrews
At the Los Alamos National Laboratory library with my SLA chapter today. Here are some unclassified monographs😉More to come!
Update: no photo's allowed so I took the one I had down just in case.
I'm really trying to like this book, but the way it's written exhausts me.
pickI just saw that this is a Kindle deal today. It's a fantastic read! I felt connected to their context in a way that was transporting and almost tangible. The writing is great and the characters and storylines are intriguing. I was most impressed by the unexpected way the story is woven together. Recommend!
