A better book I read recently is Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky. If you like books about genetically engineered super-intelligent spiders who convey complex information and memories through the exchange of sperm then this is the book for you.
This book is exceptional in every regard.
The sequel, Children of Ruin is also very, very good.0 -

I'm enjoying it. I found it at King's Canyon or Denali (one of the two) when I visited, but pretty sure you can nab copies of it on Amazon. The original had a preface and was compiled by Horace Albright's daughter (Albright is credited as the founder of the group of men and women we now know as "park rangers").
If you have friends who would enjoy that book, they'd probably enjoy "Wild Muir" as well.1 -
Educated was one of my favorite books this year as well as Where The Crawdads Sing. Educated is a tough read but where it goes is really the message....your beginning does not define your ending. You can make of your life what you choose!!! Tara is an inspiration! Having nothing, coming from crazy parents and yet finding a way toward educating herself to the extent she did, is why i believe there are no excuses for staying in the miserable situation you are in. If you want change bad enough, you’ll find a way! On a side note, it’s so fascinating to me how some people who come from disastrous, miserable situations tend to be the ones who are most grateful and willing to do the exhausting work to create the lives of their dreams instead of boohooing about how unfair it all is and complaining about the unfair advantage of others.1

^^^^In other words, I think you’ll really like Educated if you want to be inspired by the life of a really hard worker😊1

That sounds interesting and useful. Is it?1 -
The Glass Castle, a reread for me but absolutely one of the best books I've ever read. IMO3

A couple Christmases ago, that book seemed to be on everybody's wish list so there were a lot of copies under the tree. I read it but need to do a reread because I don't remember a lot about it.2
