Show Us Your Books March 2025

February wasn’t the best reading month, but there were a few gems. I was distracted, and the book club books I was reading were kind of blah.

Five Star Reads

Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler - It really is amazing how close to reality this book is. I’ve read it before but I was glad to read it again.

Four Star Reads

Never Panic Early by Fred Haise - If you‘re reading this for insights on the Apollo 13 mission don’t. However if you want fun stories about astronaut training from a guy with a laid back attitude this is worth a read. I loved the stories about the different places they traveled to study geology before going to the moon. I also appreciated his thoughts about climate change at the end too.

Tuesday Evenings With The Copeton Craft Resistance by Kate Solly - A group of crochet enthusiasts get together to craft, fight racism, and support each other in Australia. I needed something straightforward with a happy ending.

Book Censor’s Library by Bothayna Al-Essa - A short book in translation about book censorship. It gets a pick from me, but I’m glad it was short because it’s all just been a lot lately.

That’s it for February. So far I’m liking my March reading a lot better!
