Garden In My Pocket. A book is like a garden carried in the pocket. Chinese proverb. Sunday, June 29, 2008. Fun and Learning at the New York Times. Not only did I have this huge sense of "Wow, I'm really learning something new today," but I was appalled by how our government used race in such a blatant way for their own benefit while at the same time denying rights to all.

By Jason Heller for NPR was another reminder to put Naomi Novik on my "to-read" list. One of her other books recently came to my attention ( Uprooted. But I didn't know about her "Temeraire" series, which is part Regency, part fantasy, part naval adventure. That's quite a combination, and I hope to give it a try. Thursday, June 16, 2016.

Mark Twain historical novel featured in One Book One County at Lockport. In Hannibal, MO - Mark Twain Museum. The man was definitely a comic genius, and snippets of those quotes as well as a running video of the Ken Burns' documentary on his life have motivated me to check these things out. A recent novel by Lynne Cullen, Twain's End. Has also piqued my interest. T...

Richmond Memorial Library - books, authors, library events, and reflections. Http:/ www.batavialibrary.org. Thursday, August 11, 2016. I've been reading advance copies of books and just realized that I have read three books that were published this week on Tuesday (the day most books are released). You might want to give them a try! After a summer like this one, I can begin to imagine what it was like to live through the Dust Bowl in the 1930s. Rae Meadows' I Will Send Rain. Are gothic novels your thing?

Richmond Memorial Library - books, authors, library events, and reflections. Http:/ www.batavialibrary.org. Saturday, April 23, 2016. Robin Yocum's new novel, A Brilliant Death. If you like coming-of-age stories set in small towns with some mystery and a large amount of suspense, try this new novel by an author who is a reporter for the Columbus Dispatch. It reminded me a great deal of William Kent Krueger's Ordinary Grace. Also a story about teen boys in a small town looking into a mysterious death.
