June 2 #SummerSouls Mountain ⛰️ @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I've read five really good books in a row this month and I'm starting to feel like anything I read next is going to be a disappointment. In an effort to avoid the dreaded book slump, I'm switching things up and reading some non-fiction. Buster is always happy to cheer me on as I try to decide which of these to tackle...

I know this is lame but when I saw the prompt #mountains, I immediately thought of my mountain of #tbr 😂😂😂 Here‘s one of my shelves. As you can see mostly old titles but the heart just can‘t let it go yet even though I keep reading the newer ones 🤔 I‘m sure most of you understand the dilemma 😅 #julyjourneys @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Dr. Paul Farmer strong believes that healthcare should not be only be for those who can afford to pay and has spent his career tirelessly working to help those who most need it from Haiti, to Peru, to Russia, and beyond. This was a gripping memoir that shows Farmer as both a hardworking visionary and also as a man with flaws.

What an amazing man Dr Paul Farmer was. This is the story of his work in Haiti, caring for the poorest of the poor. They live in unspeakable conditions, and their health care was non existent. Dr Farmer spent his life serving them and working toward taking his ideas to other countries.

#WordsOfOctober Day 31: I always find our family weekend trips to the mountains to be especially #splendid. Look at that gorgeous moon out tonight. 💕

An excellent book! The story of Dr Paul Farmer and his belief in healing the world. He established a clinic in the midst of dire poverty in Haiti. Well written and so much to think about.

This book was one of those books I was told I had to read before peace corps. I never actually made time to read it beforehand but at the training center in Benin, we discovered trunks and trunks of books left behind by volunteers and this was in one of them. It was such a good read. Not the most entertaining non-fic, but reading about Paul Farmer and all the hard work he put into his service was inspiring.
