@Jessie I haven’t read it yet.

Jessie Nabors I want to like it more than I am, unfortunately. I know it is a memoir, and I liked her interview on NPR, but it just hasn’t hooked me yet.
I enjoyed it having been raised by a like minded but less emphatic version of her father.

Just finished Travels with Charley by John Steinbeck, started Child Finder by Rene Denfeld
I loved Travels with Charley. I liked even more a book written by my fellow Dutchman Geert Mak, who travelled the same route as Steinbeck and wrote a book about it, called In America: Travels with Steinbeck. Check it out!
@Ynn I wiil, ty, I get my audio reading from the Libray of Congress I will see if they have it. What time period did he do Steinbecks route? Did he do it because he liked JS and wanted to follow what he did? How different or similar are there perceptions?
@Nettie I think it was on the 50th anniversary of Steinbeck’s book. He comments on what JS wrote about each location, adds his own impressions and tells us about US history related to the area. He also wrote a very interesting book about Europe’s 20th century history.
In Europe: Travels Through the Twentieth Century https://g.co/kgs/mgWccq
@Ynn , ty both books sound interesting. I know very little about Eurpoe land and history this book would be very interesting.
@Nettie if you can find them, they are both worthwhile reading. A plus is that they are not just a dry summing up of facts. They are very pleasant to read and very informative.

@Jessie Baker’s Secret was well researched and written. While not part of the resistance, Emma’s ingenuity and response to the occupying army can only be admired. I would definitely recommend you add it to your TBR list.

Good book
@Joy I like it but it draws ouuuuuut.
I thought it went rather, especially after under the dome that one took me months to read

Under the dome is good and much better than that messed up tv series they made. Just drags.
Odd Thomas- Dean Koontz
I love this series and am not a fan of Koontz. Ha. It is so fun. I hated the film adaptation though and really hoped it would be good as the novels entertain! Check out the comic books he did with the character as well
I love Dean Koontz, most of the times books are better. But I do agree movie was a bit lame. Glad to hear that book is much better
