okay, i’m really late

but i have been reading – never fear:)

“memory of lights” – great book – sad book – good YA for high school – i’ve really gotten to like the author’s work – and his openness about his depression – which served as a big part of the book – was very admirable

“alan turing: an enigma” – great book – lengthy (660 pages) book – about a highly creative type who developed the early knowledge we use for computers today – turing machines – he also helped develop the decoding that helped the Brits crack the Nazi code in WWII – he also did initial computer theory and development – his ending was tragic – but it was a good read in the sense that he was highly creative – and there were parts that made him thrive – and things that didn’t
