I live simply by the sea amidst sand and sun with my singer-songwriter husband. We're surrounded by woods which give us the illusion of privacy and exquisite gardens. We cultivate our own organic herbs, vegetables and flowers, and meditate and relax in our beautiful gardens home to myriad flora and fauna. We create a faint carbon footprint. I am... more »

    Hi She:
    I'm really glad you are starting to like "Independent People" - - it was a 'sleeper' for me too - - it took me a while to warm up to the novel, then I couldn't put it down! Also, glad you got something out of "Wild Thorns;" I did a series of reads by Middle Eastern women writers, and that was one of my favorite reads. Quite haunting, and it truly opened my eyes to see the Palestinian struggles from a different perspective! Per your recommendation, I'll drop in on the Alexandria Forum . . . thanks for the invite!

    I am working on my TBR pile - I lust after new books and need to catch up with myself. I've had "Curious Thing" hanging around for a while and it is a quick and easy read - really compelling. When I was substituting I worked with the autistic unit often. The train of thought is familiar, it makes me smile while I'm reading. I really like this story, well written.

    This is the first time I've read it. I was a bit disappointed that the introduction pretty much told me the entire story, though. :-( Guess I should have skipped it, but I didn't expect to be told what I assume was supposed to be a surprise before I even started reading the book itself!

    Cape Cod does sound beautiful, by the way. :-)

    Me too! LOL I used to feel obligated to finish every book, I think I have a touch of OCD.

    I love research because it is a challenge and with new protocols you don't get burned out. You either love it or hate it. Dealing with FDA can be a pain and you must enjoy paper work and have good organizational skills. I love the one on one patient care where you are doing it all, llabs, ECG's, dispensing drug, etc. I am in the golden years of my career and want to finish out in research. I am looking forward to an even simpler live in a few more years. :) Give me a good book and put me in the middle of the woods and I am happy! I don't like the rat race of our world.

    I haven't started it, on my TBR list which is getting longer by the day! I am looking forward to it, I have it on my iPod. Audible has a 50% off sale for 1 week so I got 7 books for $40.

    I have found nursing very rewarding. I worked on oncology floor many years ago. I am a Certified Clinical Research Coordinator so for the last 15 years I've been conducting clinical trials for non FDA approved drugs. I am doing a study with Johnoson & Johnson for a sub q pain med for patients with cancer and have a breast cancer nausea med study.

    Thanks for the feedback on Little Bee, love hearing from other readers. Talk to you soon!

    I was really sad to hear about that. I was on Cape Breton Island as part of my cruise (and it is beautiful!). I think if I'd been on the next cruise after mine, I would been on Cape Breton the same day it happened. :-(

    I don't remember if you've told me or not (or if you want to share). If you are willing to share, where in New England are you?

    Thanks for recommending "Uncertain Peril." GE seeds are definitely a concern of mine. Terminator technology is a scary thing and I find the extinction of so many heirloom seed varieties an utter tragedy. (P.S. I like your new profile image. A cranberry bog, right?)

    Thanks for the recommendations. I've added both to the tbr, but with any book I add, it could be a while before I get to them. :-)
