pickReturning to an old childhood classic with Alexis Bledel, Winnie herself in the 2002 film (I was 11!), narrating the story was soothingly nostalgic all while retaining Natalie Babbitt‘s understated explorations of time, nature, death, injustice, and the cycle of life for children. A brilliant classic of children‘s literature, recommended for all ages.
pickThe first kids‘ book club of the school year is always sparsely attended at the library, and this September was no different. The one 9 year-old girl who attended reviewed Tuck Everlasting, one of my favorite children‘s books ever, thusly: “it wasn‘t horrid.” 😅
For my part, I still love it, warts (Jesse) & all. I‘ll forever be a Natalie Babbitt superfan.

I listed to this one because it was mentioned a few time in the FROM📺 conspiracies😂
I‘m not quite sure if I get it aside from the cover looking like the photo of Boyds cottage.
pickThese are Anunnaki! Who are Anunnaki you ask? Old older than old Sumerian gods that mated with Homo erectus via IVF to create humans as a slave species
WHAT?? That can‘t be true!
Of course it isn‘t! It‘s retrofitting mythology to entertain crackpot theories. Zecharia Sitchin? Erich von Däniken?
One way ticket to Crazytown *but* entertaining. Nick Redfern is the same. Pseudoarchaeology for bored archaeologists. Indulge with that in mind. ?
bailedThis has the right title, I feel like I've been reading it for an eternity and nothing has happened. I don't know if it's because Mack Reynolds passed away before finishing it, and Dean Ing completed the story, but it moves like s friggin glacier. I don't mind a slow burn mystery but this is ridiculous. #hailthebail
The girl he had met on a bench in the plaza near the bus stop had told him the only hotel in town suitable for a gringo was the Casa de Sierra Nevada.

pickOh, yes please. The blend of sci fi how could technology help to figure out the origins of immortality - and history/archaeology - looking back on how the continuity of an unkillable human would affect the civilizations they interact with, the flow of myths, information, even artifacts. And then there's the plight of the immortal warrior - so much loss and no rest - and then there's the very well plotted/paced intrigue 1/?
#ShadowCat is doing yoga. Guess he needed some time on the mat.
I'll give him a few more minutes and continue with the tagged #ARC.
