I might be biased, but I read this the week I visited NASA with students. Whereas most of the ISS books I‘ve read focused on the science and engineering, this told the emotional and mental side of orbiting the earth- seeing it from afar- the beauty, your family continuing, its fragility, your “home”, while doing a job only a few can understand. The writing is exquisite- I simply loved it.
@TheSpineView Thank you for the tag! I have had my ☕️ coffee! Relaxing day ahead after some silly shopping! Maybe a walk in the sunshine and then I hope to knit all while listening to the tagged book. @AllDebooks
Every audio book I‘ve started this year I have bailed on for a variety of reasons. Some haven‘t been great, all have been clawed back by the library but it‘s mainly been more anxiety driven. I want quiet in my brain when I walk, clean, cook. Today I thought I‘d try again since my hold for Orbital is almost over. I‘ve tackled the mountain of ironing and now I‘m tackling Mona
This is a book for kids to understand recycling. Still, I think we should be using other bottles of different products instead of plastic. #ISpyBingoFeb @TheAromaofBooks
I loved Orbital. A very poetic thoughtful read…I wasn‘t sure how any book could beat James for the Booker, but now I understand.
Loved Clear also.. another beautifully written thoughtful book.
Every year I read a classic…a chunkster…this year it‘s Middlemarch! This is my second attempt and I‘m determined to finish it..
Happy reading everyone
