I thought I could wait until my turn at the library, but here we are with my most recent purchase...

This one really does have a gorgeous cover. Lovely writing as well. #bookart

Getting my creepy on for fall.

"What happens when I feel compassion is that it opens something in me so wide it hurts. It lets in so much life that I don't know what to do. I am flooded, I shut down. I get angry."

Love this book cover!

I'm impressed that Urrea is such a great fiction writer in addition to his nonfiction!

Just got Carla's latest. Love her writing, but also hoping this one is a little less intense than What Night Brings!

That bookmark hasn't moved for a while. Somehow all my other books just keep getting in the way. #thisistheyear

Finally getting around to reading this one before her new book comes out!

I don't agree with all the perspectives the author takes, but this is a riveting look at LAPD's police force and the pressing issue of homicide.
