#wondrouswednesday Thanks @Crazeedi @TheSpineView for the tag!

1) tagged and it was so good
2) historical fiction: Ken Follett, Bernard Cornwell, Ruta Sepetys (many more but those I can think of off the top of my head)
3) Too many to name just one: David McCullough, Jon Krakauer, Laura Hillenbrand, Jack Weatherford (and many more)

Texreader James Taylor‘s audio memoir also was excellent: 4y
Blueberry Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air was so good. 4y
MoonWitch94 Yessss to Ken Follett!!! 4y

This was good. So much I didn't know about them. It made me appreciate the work behind flight.

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I should listen to some more non-fiction. I referred to them with my niece a few weeks ago as "The Wright Brothers. You know, Orville and not Orville." 4y

A belated #bookreport from #hiselderliness

He enjoyed Birdmen, the story of the Wright Brothers, although he said “it‘s a bit complicated for my poor old brain” with lots of characters to remember. “They never proved who was the first in it, either”
Nearly finished The Wild Trees which he seems to be loving as he spent some time explaining to me how they slingshot a thin line up into the trees so they can get their rope up. ⬇️

Centique In general news his Elderliness tried to convince my cousin to accompany him in buying a new motorcycle. However he has been convinced that a mobility scooter is more his speed these days. He has already given us conniptions by nearly tipping it over going down the steep hill he lives on 😱 4y
Cinfhen Ha! I knew your dad was a #RebelAtHeart ♥️ 4y

TrishB I‘m hoping to still be winding my kids up like that ❤️ 4y

I decided that since I return to work on Monday, I needed to double down on books. Trying to conquer this #tbr pile while I have time. I decided to start reading all of McCullough's books this summer and started with this one because I already own it. Thought it was great and realized I didn't actually know the story.
