This week is National Justice for Animals Week. They need some, too.


Finished The Mighty Red: there's a lot going on with this one. It's supposed to be somewhat funny and it sometimes is. But it's also rather depressing. I did enjoy her take on farming practices and the enjoyment of nature. There's a bookstore and book club meetings, so that's always fun to read about. And the mysterious underlying incident was pretty gruesome. So, some will like it; some won't.

Now I am reading Resident Alien, The Graphic Novel. I just watched all 3 seasons of the TV show, thanks to DVDs from my library. It was so funny and surprising. So, I decided to read this as it's supposed to be quite different from the TV show, but still funny. We shall see.

Just started listening to The Chemist by Stephenie Meyerhi. A tautly plotted novel with a fierce and fascinating new (in 2016) heroine, with a very specialized skill set. A gripping page-turner.

Stay safe and sane out there everyone.
