pickIn the desert scientists were working on a secret gadget. The story was set in Las Alamos 1943. The families the scientists were not told anything about what went on the hill. Gertie, a teenage girl and Christine, a young married woman became friends. Gertie‘s father and Christine‘s husband both worked on the gadget. Loneliness was common and the desert bleak. Historical fiction and the making of the bomb to end WWII. 4.25/5⭐️
pick“When our skin touches, our atoms touch, their shadows merging into a shadow galaxy.”
Chicago 1950. Rosalind Porter has spent the war years as a physicist for the Manhattan project. She misses her work but her sadness over the atomic bomb‘s devastation in Japan is overwhelming. Love triangle, espionage, secrets…

pickA middle-aged couple face the horrors of nuclear war in this sweet, but devastating adult picture book. A mis/under informed husband tries to man-splain away his worries while his caring but oblivious wife absent-mindedly goes along with his plans. Feels freshly relevant in our age of misinformation, as this couple could only operate with the information they had available, while so many today operate only with the info they choose to accept.

This story had been on my mind for quite a while, but I never knew what the title was until @Bookwomble posted about it.
