This book was entertaining enough. I picked this up at my local B&N at a buy 2 get 1 free table. To be completely honest probably would have never gotten it if it wasn‘t on that table. The author does talk a great deal about the actual shark attacks that inspired the book but a lot of time is also spent on people‘s attitudes towards sharks in the early 1900. Towards the end it was kind of a struggle to finish the book

Great book gives very good insight on a very complicated legacy of T.E. Lawrence. One great thing about this book is that even though it covers a lot of heady topics it doesn‘t read like a text book and over inundate you with dates and names.

11/22/63: A Novel | Stephen King

First Stephen King book I‘ve read in years. It‘s a quick read & different than the normal King horror spiel. If you‘re a fan of historical novels or alternate history this is probably right up your alley.

Great book had a lot of cool inside declassified information from WWII about British intelligence trying and succeeding to bring down the German war machine from the inside.

Roma Eterna | Robert Silverberg

This one was a struggle. Alternate history of what would happen if Rome had not fallen. Goes through different periods of history through short stories. It was interesting enough at the beginning of the book. Towards the end it definitely drags on. I had to fight to finish it.

Great book really get to see how a persons situation growing up can have so much affect on them throughout their life. It also shows a lot about the difference we place on education depending on a persons economic standings.

This is my go to every time I‘m in between books. Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite authors and he doesn‘t disappoint with this one.
