The monthly magazine all about my birth place. Has great stories and gorgeous pictures plus things to buy, clothes and foodstuff. Makes me not miss home so much.

Oh, I’ve always been an avid reader. But I’ve noticed I really cut down sharply. Some of it was because of the Internet and social media. Some of it was because of my outdoor time in the gardens. But most of it was because of work. It consumed my day. And it drained me. I needed light stuff after work and the type of things I like to read are intense. Mostly serial killer and true crime stuff. But now that I’ve laid off, I found myself going to Barnes & Noble and picking up a few books on that genre. I’ve got a really good book going that talks about several serial, killers, and how they were caught. And I’ve got a great book on the mother of forensic science!

Well, I’ve finally decided to pick up and read this one book that I’ve been meaning to read for many years now….. Larry McMurtry’s “Lonesome Dove”.

It’s over 800 pages long and the movie version, with Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones, Danny Glover, Tim Scott, Diane Lane and a host of more top names has always been one of my most favorite and treasured western movies. My mother had read the book years ago and she just raved about it and said that the book was unquestionably better than the movie. That’s usually the case but this book, especially so.

So, here I go, bookworms!! Wish me luck!!! 😉👍

I read Astrophysics for People in a Hurry by Neil deGrasse Tyson and I loved it. I so much enjoy the way he explains things. He's so personable and easygoing.

The Tudors by G.J. Meyer is Meyers research into the famous period in Britian when France overthrew the British crown and ruled for 50 years during the 1400s until his son Henry V111 rose up and took all in his sight even downing the Catholic Church and seperating Englands power to The Church of England. If there is interest in this era it is quite exposure to the truth behind the throne.
