pickMemoirs aren't always my favorite, but this one was a hit for me on so many levels: I loved the nature and ecology, the exploration of family and belonging and connection to place, defying expectations in a quiet way. I was surprised to learn that Lanham wasn't an experienced writer before this because his prose flows so well, and he does such a great job conveying emotion without becoming sappy (as many memoirs do). Loved this one!
I decided to start this book for the #naturalitsy buddy read. I bought this audiobook with a credit I got this month with my Libro FM membership. I‘m not very far into this book but I like it. It‘s interesting so far.
It's nothing like Lanham's Home Place, but it's my Home Place (or one of them), and I love it when it's like this. Reading about Lanham's home and family in all of their complexity while planning a trip to visit my family of origin (and a couple of alternate-dimension homes) has me reflecting about how much I love being from so many places---even as I kind of crave some roots. The mid-life crisis just goes on and on, it seems.
pickA pretty short and very enjoyable science book about the Galápagos Islands and everything on them (including the people). I think if you‘re going to the Galápagos (yes, I am doing that), this book is a must-read primer for understanding the formation of the islands, all the life on them and in the ocean around them, and exactly why they are so unusual.
Today I feel spring around the corner- reached 71 today. I feel exhilaration after attending a protest in Hartford, always coffee, the “ Robert Tree” our Magnolia is starting to bloom, kitties, tonight‘s sunset, Litsy friends, the ocean at Banks Street Beach, Harwich Port,Cape Cod,books!, my first porch day with coffee & a book, sisters, hummingbirds yet to visit my garden. #hope #joy #love #gratitude #resist #nature #moodboardcontest #mbc
pickI loved this one.
Scales looks at how the modern human is affecting the wild life in the seas, and looking especially at emperor penguins, sharks and orcas. She also looks at kelps and reefs, and makes it obvious how connected everything is and how even small interferences by humans can cause great destruction to the sea
Lunch & book shopping with my 3 sisters today- so much laughter & book talk!

1. Yes, I put them in the mail this morning. Only because I couldn‘t stand writing a check to the federal government. I literally shed a few tears thinking about where my money was going and where it wasn‘t.
2. Reflective
