LitStephanie @vlwelser I am reading it! Not caught up, though, still finishing chapter 2. 1d

August Moon | Jess Lourey

I‘ll probably never get reviews posted for August, I‘m still behind for July but I managed to read 20 books, which surprised me given my schedule & energy level for the month. Many were short books & I made 8 day trips in the month which gives me about 90 minutes per trip of reading + airport commute time.

Small and the Mighty: Twelve Unsung Americans Who Changed the Course of History, from the Founding to the Civil Rights Movement | Sharon McMahon

This was better as it went along. The last 2 sections were my favorites. The author pulls random people out of history that a normal person that doesn't know much history might not have heard of. I appreciate what the author is doing here.

Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution | Cat Bohannon

Hello #SheSaid

I‘m really liking this one already. The introduction alone was very interesting. Please drop by the comments as you finish this week‘s section.

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I was hooked from the discussion of fat, liposuction, and that that is an organ with a purpose in the introduction. It explains so much about women and weight loss and regain cycles to me. And why we often regain more…probably the body knows it can be lost and wants to be extra prepared with a bit more in case of the next “famine”. 1w

Riveted_Reader_Melissa …it also made me think of all the weight lose drugs now and wonder how effective they will be long term and what side effects they may have long term 1w

vlwelser I am glad we're reading this. I had no idea it was so long when I proposed it. But I like her style. And I like how detailed it is. 1w

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @vlwelser me too…and yes, I thought that part way through this week‘s section …the this is longer than I thought it was. 1w

MallenNC My friend read this and recommended it. I‘m glad to hear it‘s good. I‘ll have to catch up when my hold comes in. 1w

LitStephanie The discussion about mammalian nursing and milk production just made me cringe, guess I am squeamish about that. I was skeptical of her reporting that males can ever produce milk, so I looked for a legitimate source, and apparently it is extremely rare (except in one type of bat) but can happen! https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/strange-but-true-males-can-lactate/ 4d

LitStephanie I thought the bit about stress hormones in milk making babies more cautious or timid was really interesting. I am sure it is only a very small push on the personality but still kind of amazing. 1d
