This gives me a few new ones to try. I have all of Jodi Picoult's books. I love them as they make me think about things in a different way, force me to step back and evaluate the why's. There are a few that have stuck with me more than others, probably due to my own personal history. 19 Minutes was particularly striking, probably because I was a senior in high school the year that the Columbine shootings happened. <br />I just read The Help which was pretty good. I had trouble putting it down. It certainly got my mind working. It wasn't at all what I expected based on the movie previews.Whitney Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07766231420593480962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-62054552315890736172011-08-09T07:32:37.152-07:002011-08-09T07:32:37.152-07:00Crows are so darn smart.

I read House Rules, and probably everything Jodie Picoult has written. It was a fascinating book and I also helpful as a teacher of students with Asperger's. It seems I have one every year, and while they are all unique, there are similarities and the book did a good job of depicting authentic behaviors.

Coexisting with the animals is always a concern while trying to maintain a balance between their needs and human needs. I don't mind the animals so much as much as the deer ticks that they carry. I have to spray a lot of repellent on my clothes to walk outside my house.R.

Crow Planet sounds like one I would really enjoy. How to Live sounds interesting too, through my genealogy hobby I have learned we should always listen to the stories and wisdom of our elders. <br /><br />Even though I have a knee high stack of books waiting to be read I am always curious about what everyone else is reading.
