The Bog Wife
by Kay Chronister
We Are All Connected (8/20/2024)
The Bog Wife was a mystical book that shows that we are all connected to one another and to the earth in special ways. The story was very slow to start, but ended well. Each of the five members of the Haddesley family by the end understands their own place in not only themore
Chain Gang All Stars: A Novel

AI is a Scary Future (3/6/2022)
Klara and the Sun was a struggle for me. It moved slowly and I am just freaked out by AI and the fear it may take over the world. The human characters were basically unlikable, revealing the weaknesses of humanity. Maybe the future for the earth to survive with any livingmore
