A great book for kids- rich description of nature and the power of animal friends in kids' lives.

All great American writers. All drunkards. Read on to see who was the only one who could write drunk. Faulkner Fitzgerald Hemingway O'Neill

Will make you reevaluate your drinking. You can see this guy going from bad to worse but you can't stop watching.

A couple trying to survive in pre-Nazi Germany, facing a poverty and fear that many of us are not aware existed for the common man. Rich characters.

Alone in Berlin | Hans Fallada

Gripping! A view from the point of view of Berliners in Nazi Germany, perhaps a perspective that we are not really meant to be interested in. Anything Fallada!!!!

Great gory details. If only they had listened to Dr. Lister and sterilised the equipment......

A fascinating time. A fascinating man but craaaazy ballsy. He would never make it as a president nowadays! Too badass, not enough politic bs and whining.

Birdsong | Sebastian Faulks

Thought I was going to read about WWI. Then came the explicit sex. I like both of those, but not together.

Gritty, sad yet funny and absurd. Rich characters.

Filled in the gaps in my knowledge about this time period and place. Interesting connections between the west and the bank crisis in the east.

A harrowing account. Not for the lighthearted. I really love that the protagonist is not the nicest guy.

Bull Mountain | Brian Panowich

Easy to get into. I liked the description of North Georgia. Talk about family drama! Makes your family look like the Waltons!

A fun read to take you away. Beware, you might lose yourself researching the real history behind it.
