How to Tell Toledo from the Night Sky: A Novel | Lydia Netzer

Smangela Have you read this one? I picked it up from the library a year or two ago and it's the one book I can remember not finishing in like 10 years, I didn't give it much effort, I did not get more than a few chapters in. So curious if I should pick it back up :) 7y

hes7 @Smangela I haven't read it yet. I picked it up at the dollar store a few months ago because it seemed interesting, but I've seen some mixed reviews recently... I am planning to read it in the next week or so, so I'll let you know. 🤞🏻 7y

Smangela I'll be on the look out for your review! Part of me thinks it was just a wrong time read for me 🤞🏻 I hope you like it! 7y

Sally Ride: America�s First Woman in Space | Lynn Sherr

Bought this one as a gift for the hubby, but I'll be reading it, too. Pretty clever way to get myself a new book, right? #riotgrams #celestial #celestialsolstice One of my small people wants to be an astronaut...she's four. #WomenCanDoAnything

Crystalblu I totally did that with one of my secret santa books!!! They did say they don't mind used ;) 7y

goodbyefrancie @Crystalblu Sounds like a great deal to me! 7y

For today's #CelestialSolstice #RIOTGRAMS Challenge I thought I would go a couple different ways. I pulled out some of my Angel books, some celestial tea, and my star mug. 😇 ☕️ ✨ #BookNerd 📚❤️

Steamfunk! | Milton J Davis, Balogun Ojetade`

Day 20 of #riotgram is #CelestialSolstice Here is a very good SF anthology by POC authors, about POC characters. Lovely all around. This one is not in the database, but the one tagged is just as good (but not in space, so...) On Amazon here Dark Universe https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B019RGDX2O/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_1JtszbBN70F5G

The Moons of Jupiter | Alice Munro

This collection of short stories all deal with characters that are transformed over time, coming to view their past selves with anger, regret, & compassion. In the final story, which is also the title of the book,is about how family relationships are magnified in times of crisis. In the story, the main character's family is mostly grouped around the ailing father,much like moons around Jupiter.

Finding Wonders: Three Girls Who Changed Science | Jeannine Atkins

#Riotgrams #day20 #CelestialSolstice This is a beautiful little book about three hardly known female scientists who made discoveries that furthered their fields without any acknowledgement. Maria Merian studied insects & made gorgeous detailed paintings, Mary Anning found fossils amongst the stones near her coastal home which furthered scientific study & Maria Mitchell helped her father make celestial maps in Nantucket, and discovered a new comet.
