pickInformative and important read. I was delighted with the scientific chapters and the marvel that is our universe. The remainder of her book chronicles her thoughts and experiences as a minority in this country and within a scientific community dominated by white men. Much of it was intensely relatable as a WOC in a male dominated STEM-field.

“The Elder blood that flows in your veins gives you power over time. And over space. Over the dimensions and the spheres. You are now Master of Worlds, Ciri. You have mighty Power. Do not let criminals or rogues take it from you and use it to their own ends…”

pickGreat Book. Considering how much I love reading non-fiction and fiction books about WWII, I was surprised I still learned a few new things. 600+ pages flew by. 4 out of 5 stars.

Rhys clinked his glass against mine. ‘To the stars who listen—and the dreams that are answered.‘”

I am ready? Hoping to finish my first audiobook in months - this heat makes it so difficult to take the dog on long walks (plus the husband keeps inviting himself 😟
