The Secret History of Sharks: The Rise of the Ocean's Most Fearsome Predators | John Long

pick

The Secret History of Sharks, by John Long (2024)

Premise: A comprehensive introduction to the long history and evolution of sharks

Review: There is no question that John Long knows his stuff and is able to communicate complex material effectively. I learned more about sharks than I ever wanted to. Cont.

Mattsbookaday That‘s both this book‘s incredible success and slight weakness: It‘s often hard with popular science books to juggle the desire for comprehensiveness with the desire for accessibility, and at times I definitely got bogged down in the sheer volume of information here.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 9h

CatLass007 I bought this book because your group is reading it and because I love Remarkably Bright Creatures. I haven‘t read it yet but I look forward to doing so. Who hosts your philosophy group? I‘d like to be added to the tag list. I know everyone is taking their time with this book but I‘m interested in this book in particular and the group in general. 2d

GingerAntics @CatLass007 I do, actually. I can definitely add you to the tags. 2d

CatLass007 Excellent! Thank you so much! Could you please explain to me how the buddy read works? And exactly what is the name of the buddy read? I noticed you had a couple of hashtags that included the word “philosophy.“ 2d

GingerAntics @CatLass007 we are the dead philosophers society… and we have adventures in philosophy. lol We usually take about 4-6 weeks off between books to let things process and let people catch up. This is the first book I didn‘t post discussion questions, so we may go back to that. I‘m not sure. We‘ll pick another book in the next week or so, and then I‘ll post the reading schedule. We usually do a chapter a week. 2d

CatLass007 Thank you.😊 2d
