July's books


The Elegance of the Hedgehog was lovely, brilliant, and such a joy and relief to read.  A book about people, thinking, and finding their tribe.  Highly recommend.

The Marvels is by the same author as The Invention of Hugo Cabret, and in a similar style.  The topic and theme of the book, however, is original, and as good as anything from this author.  Another one worth buying and keeping for the kids, grand-kids, friends, people who might be friends.....

Artemis I read for book group.  It's a fun read, but not as good as The Martian (by the same author)

Origin in Death got on my list because of a discussion about clones.  I had read this series ages ago, but stopped when I caught up w/ the author.  She's excellent at churning out a decent read, and some, like this, are modestly thought provoking.  Beach worthy read.
