I have stacks and stacks of books I brought home from my last trip to Arizona leaving son at his university. I‘m now slowly entering them into my book database. Here are two of the nonfiction books I bought. I swear Arizona is a book lover‘s mecca.

Just couldn‘t force myself to finish the last 17%. This is no doubt likely caused by my own over-saturation over the past 2 years, as opposed to the book or the author. I won‘t be finishing the last book in the series. Genre change time📚
2/5
One of my pet peeve is a misleading title... And this book is the perfect example. It's actually a book about Wright's experience of Texas: it is filled with anecdotes. It's between a memoir, a travelogue, and an opinion piece.
It's a pan to me, because it's a lot of name dropping without a clear structure, or a clear objective. Very disjointed writing.
Loved this story!! What a beautifully written plot! And the characters were so real to me. It was easy to get immersed in the story and invested in the characters. I loved how faith in God played a major role without being preachy or boring. If you enjoy unusual casts and inspirational, historical romance, then definitely give it a try! #beautifulstory #wellwritten #cleanread #inspirational
4.5/5. kindle. first in a series and it was a lot of fun. love the main character and the mystery/who done it! very enjoyable and as someone who lives in the american west she does a great job of capturing the landscape and feeling.
Bump. Currently in the news. This case haunts a lot of people. Let‘s really hope this is the guy.
Another heartbreaking and great book by this author.
I‘ve wanted to listen to this for some time, but the reviews said the narrator was difficult to listen to. They just released this new audio version and it‘s a narrator that‘s popular for many audios. I‘m only a few hours in but I can tell it‘s a very different and positive listen. Highly recommend if the former narration made you bail on it.
This book destroys the myths about the Alamo, to include the people involved and the reasons for the battle. The main reason for the Texas revolt, which included the defense of the Alamo, was slavery. Mexico had banned it, infuriating American settlers.
The second half of the book looks at the strange history of its preservation and cultural context. Fun tidbit, musician Phil Collins is a major player in the site‘s recent history.
