pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thoroughly researched, and thoughtfully presented, dissection of America‘s racial history highlighting the specific roles of Cotton Mather, Thomas Jefferson, William Lloyd Garrison, WEB De Bois, and Angela Davis. If like me, this has been sitting on your backlist, get to it soon!
Well this is unfortunate. Looks like pgs.197-198 got caught in a machine at some point.
pickExtended heavy rains in 1913 caused widespread, devastating flooding that impacted most of the eastern and central US, causing major damage and leading to flood mitigation efforts. Washed Away takes the reader through those days, focusing on Ohio and Indiana, the hardest hit, and telling the story through the experiences of individuals. A really compelling read! #ReadYourEbooks (May)
pickA truly heartbreaking account of the many, many women abused, neglected, raped, and killed by the Kennedy clan. Alongside the well known Jackie, Carolyn, and Marilyn are several others whose names are lost to history but whose lives were forever altered by Kennedy men. Just another sad reminder that men with wealth, power, and family clout have been getting away with the most egregious behavior for decades.
Picked up my order at River City Books in Soldotna, Alaska. Got “trapped” inside the bookstore by a mama moose and her twins munching on the plants right outside the door. (Is it really “trapped” when it‘s a bookstore? 🤣). I hope to start it tonight.
May reading (I have about 60 pages left of Flamingo so I am counting it for May)
It was a lot of good not amazing books.
