pickWhat an incredible read! Patricia Ononiwu Kaishon's book reminds me of Hope Jahren and Robin Wall Kimmerer, all scientists deeply involved in nature and natural science. I learned so much about fungi, and there is still so much to learn. This book teaches that nature is inclusive and it feels like a warm hug. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Im going to watch Frankenstein on Netflix this weekend. The book is one of my favorites. I very much enjoyed Pans Labyrinth and The Shape of Water.
Here‘s a negative review from a big fan of the book. Who says he changes and leaves out big parts of the story for visuals sake, which is my fear with Del Toro.

When your daughter makes you cry as her first ink is a dedication to me. It is stunning and really suits her.
My favourite bee is the red-tailed bumblebee as it's one of the first signs of spring. Debra means bee.
I'm so honoured and teary. My beasties are my world.

#Deshelving these as part of a gradual attempt to fit all my books into designated space!
Numberland is my son's which he no longer wants.
Breathe I accidentally ordered 2 copies of, so keeping 1, donating the other.
The books on the English I never got round to reading, & doubt I ever will (well, I definitely won't now!)
Parallel Worlds & The Later Bourgeoise World are both good, but I won't re-read.
pickHiking in the mountains listening to this book.
I‘m not going to Mars. Just New Jersey! Final tally of reading material that I‘m taking with me:

-1 audiobook for the drive
No, I‘m not going to run the vacuum cleaner or do laundry before I go.
The book i wanted to borrow wasn't available, but this was! I love physics so decided to give it a whirl
pickI loved this more than I can say! A nature-infused memoir is nothing new, but this was more focused on flora and fauna than your average nature memoir. It‘s astounding to realize the differences between the way the world actually is and the way humans think/assume it is. Male vs female, binary thinking isn‘t the way to think of our magnificent world. Features Kaishian‘s lived experiences in personal and professional life along creatures. Read it!
