She doesn’t know when she’ll get to leave to see him again and it breaks her heart. Mattie is a brand new mother to a three-month old son when she’s called away into the big house. This is a story of the harsh realities of slavery and the unlikely bonds that were still able to be made. The book moves across time fairly quickly in the sense that when it begins, Lisbeth is just about to be born and when it ends, she’s a young woman about to be married. This is set in the mid 1800s in Virginia and is told from two perspectives: that of Mattie, and enslaved woman turned wet-nurse, and Lisbeth, the young girl that Mattie wet-nursed for. If you’ve followed the blog for awhile now, you know that I’m really into anything that touches on slavery–it’s just a time in history that I have a lot of personal interest in. I decided to switch gears with genres and go with some historical fiction (a theme that I think is gonna stick for a while) for my next read–so I give you Yellow Crocus. The only problem I have with the series (two of the books anyway) is Hadassah, the heroine of the tale. In fact, how I wish they would make a movie out of the books! You know those good ol movies such as Ben Hur and The Robe? This trilogy reminded me of the movies. This has got to be the best, and I mean, THE best Christian trilogy I've ever read. This is a love story, a history, a story of cruelty and torture and hate and unconditional love, varying relationships and all the dynamics involved, and amazing characters and the events in their lives. And the culture and practices of the period are written with such detail that you are left with a solid understanding of what life was like in Rome and how people lived. The story line continues over time and through the last book and through many situations pertinent to the time. The main character appears and plays a large part in the second book in the series but there are other characters that evolve and come to the forefront. By the end of the book, she's grown, and you will have run a gamut of emotions, experienced love, total suspense, extreme pain, joy, tears, hope, fear, and burning anger, and I would be surprised if you don't lie awake many nights thinking, "I've GOT to put this book down and go to sleep.but I c-a-n-'t!" The story begins in early Rome with a young girl character. This is another author I resisted reading.for y-e-a-r-s because I had preconceived opinions about what she would write because she's a Christian. Absolutely one of the BEST series I've read. Miller shows how these breakthroughs arose not only from within their respective fields but from larger currents in the intellectual culture of the times: specifically, the rise of photography for Picasso, various well-known practical problems in the design of electric dynamos and the regularization of railroad timetables for Einstein, and for both the increasingly sophisticated ideas of space, time, and invisible forces that made up the cutting-edge science of the day. This fascinating parallel biography of Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso as young men examines their greatest works-Einstein's special theory of relativity and Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, the painting that brought art into the twentieth century. The most important scientist of the twentieth century, and its most important artist, had their periods of greatest creativity almost simultaneously and in remarkably similar circumstances. The common wellsprings of human creativity-in art and in science-are explored through the lives of Einstein and Picasso.

Most important, he explains why creativity needs to be cultivated and is necessary for the future of our country, if not the world. He discusses such ideas as why creative individuals are often seen as selfish and arrogant, and why the "tortured genius" is largely a myth. Drawing on nearly one hundred interviews with exceptional people, from biologists and physicists, to politicians and business leaders, to poets and artists, as well as his thirty years of research on the subject, Csikszentmihalyi uses his famous flow theory to explore the creative process. Legendary psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (“The leading researcher into ‘flow states.’” - Newsweek) reveals what leads to these moments-be it the excitement of the artist at the easel or the scientist in the lab-so that this knowledge can be used to enrich people's lives. The classic study of the creative process from the bestselling author of Flow.Ĭreativity is about capturing those moments that make life worth living. Although a chapter is devoted to FLOW and the concepts, it is necessary to know the nature of work before advancing into a scheduled routine. Unforunately FLOW I think became too much of a hit to be taken as seriously as it should have been. “Although the benefits of this study to scholars are obvious, this thought-provoking mixture of scholarly and colloquial will enlighten inquisitive general readers, too.” - Library Journal (starred review) This book, in the authors opinion, should be taken as a sequal to the 'cult' hit FLOW. 7/5/2023 0 Comments Grave witch by kalayna priceHazards of the obsession of reading.Ī great easy flowing read that made me want to pick up her newest installment of Alex, death and detective Falin. We also pick up another book and get lost on the path to follow up issues. I remembered really enjoying the read but sometimes (as most reviewers will tell you) you read so many books that you can't always have immediate recall of the stories. Kudos to the author for combining the "fantasy" with a great story! Wouldn't it be great if murders could be solved by talking to the "shades" (memories) of the deceased? Especially since they can't lie?! What is not to like about having a little magic in our world?Īs I was reading this first book of her series I realized that a few years back I had already read one of the other books in this series and hadn't connected the dots. The crime and mystery part of the story was great! Well thought out plot and investigation keeps you intrigued from the moment it is introduced. Smart, resourceful, self sufficient but it sure is nice to have the stalking of a powerful man (or two) to keep your ass alive! I love magic! (Insert self as the main character Alex and you have most women's fantasy). A smart quirky female main character that finds herself in a bit of trouble and along comes hunky, frustrating alpha male inserting himself to help her situation. Book 4 Grave Visions releases Feb 2, 2016 7/5/2023 0 Comments Nick michael farris smith'Anybody who believes that the war is over when the enemy surrenders and the troops come home needs to read Michael Farris Smith's masterful new novel NICK. Charged with enough alcohol, heartbreak, and profound yearning to transfix even the heartiest of golden age scribes, Nick reveals the man behind the narrator who has captivated readers for decades. An epic portrait of a truly singular era and a sweeping, romantic story of self-discovery, this rich and imaginative novel breathes new life into a character that many know only from the periphery. Instead, he embarks on a transcontinental redemptive journey that takes him from a whirlwind Paris romance - doomed from the very beginning - to the dizzying frenzy of New Orleans, rife with its own flavour of debauchery and violence. Floundering in the wake of the destruction he witnessed first-hand, Nick delays his return home, hoping to escape the questions he cannot answer about the horrors of war. Before Nick Carraway moved to West Egg and into Gatsby's world, he was at the centre of a very different story - one taking place along the trenches and deep within the tunnels of World War I. 7/4/2023 0 Comments Atalanta by Jennifer SaintShe has done many events at bookshops throughout the country including Waterstones, Toppings and other independent bookstores, appeared online for international festivals in North America and Mexico and travelled to Barcelona for Festival 42 alongside Lucy Holland and Alexandra Bracken.
