“A sociopath is often described as someone with little or no conscience. I‘ll leave it to the psychologists to decide whether Holmes fits the clinical profile, but there‘s no question that her moral compass was badly askew.”

so-soInformative, fair and measured in reporting, but overall sad in tone. Hammer does a decent job of presenting Lendrum's crimes within the broader context of the demand and attraction of theft and smuggling of rare/endangered/illegal bird's eggs, within Lendrum's own life which encompasses both some unfortunate circumstances, but mostly unfortunate choices,1/?
Okay, but I love that. 🐣🥚🧺🐇💚💜🩷
It‘s officially hashtag#TakeActionForLibraries Day! To celebrate and advocate for libraries and library funding, we want every library lover to make their voice heard today. Head to ala.org/showup to learn how you can take action by calling or emailing Congress, writing a letter to your local newspaper, and more! Tell Congress how important your library is to your community - and how important federal funding is to sustain their work.
so-soSome of the stories peaked my interest more than others, but with as many as there were, it‘s hard to remember them when a short time was spent on many (as opposed to the bulk of the book on Jacob‘s case). The book also highlighted differences in the types of searches, for how long they last, etc, depending on where a person goes missing; much of that comes down to cost. Cont in comments...
