I am a learn‘ed person. I know how the dinosaurs died. So explain why this jerk made me tear up about the dinosaurs demise…. Excellent book to listen to at work.

If you are a fan of paleontology and natural history, then this is a must read. Brusatte‘s passion on the subject shines through.

I‘d call this a fascinating but stressful read. It was a big library read on Libby a while ago, and I was intrigued enough to read it. It starts out with a pretty cool prehistory of North America, and half way through it quickly spirals into a distressing tirade of environmental destruction and needless cruelty as white colonists flood the scene. Indigenous perspectives are definitely missing in this book.
Frances Hardinge is a damn good storyteller (and Emilia Fox is a top notch narrator)! Yes, there are gothic shenanigans involving an eldritch tree that thrives on lies and produces psychotropic truth-fruits. Then there is a suspicious death to be investigated. But *really* it is about scientifically-minded Faith refusing to content herself with the crumbs that fall from the table as she grows towards womanhood in the Victorian era.

I'm excited to be starting this one. I have high expectations, even if the physics is melting my brain.
Anyone else started yet?
This book arrived today in my mailbox- starting late but hoping to finish this month. The glass jar contains stones from years of hiking & beaching - my son reminding me on some trails that we were not supposed to take anything, but I contended that one stone was ok- this jar is full of stones representing cherished memories. #Naturalitsy #Buddyread #pebbles #September

I've had a lot of good fortune recently on thrift finds. #VirginiaBloomsberries and #NaturaLitsy September #buddyreads both secondhand, in excellent condition.
