    Reading in June

    I just finished Ordinary Heroes by Scott Turow. Oh my, what an excellent read!

    Joe and I are reading The Wright Brothers by David McCullough. There is so much more to the Wright brothers and their flying machine than I thought. As always, David McCullough can really make a biography come alive.

    What are you reading?

    I'm reading "Seveneves" by Neal Stephenson. Almost 900 pages, and way too much techie detail than necessary for telling the story. Still, I'm enjoying it. It is about a future where the moon is hit by (a meteor? wandering black hole? they're not sure.) This leads to the total destruction of the Earth, with a small crew in space trying to guarantee the survival of the human race.

    Has anyone finished the Pulitzer novel, All the light We Cannot See? I started it liked it, and then had to return it to the library because there is a waiting list.
