just finished " the betrayed" written by david hosp. it was a thriller but had a lot of history about eugenics which is the science of controlling gene pool through selective breeding such as mass sterilization to weed out " in what would be considered inferior genes. most of these programs were directed towards the handicapped or mentally retarded. --good read!!

I posted somewhere? Not here but I just finished Me Before You by Jojo Moyes. It was excellent story of a quadriplegic and his caregiver. A lot more complicated than that and I cried near the end but a great read. Couldn't put it down. I am starting Racing On A Wire by Inge Moore. I think tnis one is revolving around the horse racing world.0
