pretty quiet around here – not that it’s a bad thing:)

“elvis in vegas” – cool book I can share with my mom – just about how Vegas developed – how Elvis came back – which was good at first – of course, anything about Elvis is rather sad – stardom pays a great price

“stranger things: darkness on the edge of town” – again, one I could share with my mom – companion to the series

“running to glory” – great book – xc in washington state – a high school team – just loved it for so many reasons – kids can be so brave when they attempt big things – adults who work with them for 30-plus years – like Mister – deserve praise

oh, i am punny…

“upon further review” – great book about sports “what if?s” – enjoyed it thoroughly – highly creative – my favorite piece being the one about the fan letter that destroyed the phoenix suns in 1993

“running life matters” – really enjoyed this one – was just one i picked up when i didn’t have anything else – it was a great surprise – running wisdom from an elder:)

“shortest way home” – great book – buttigieg is running for prez – he makes waves occasionally – outside of politics, just his story – and what he’s done as mayor – those were cool things to read about

“mockingbird songs” – again, needed a book – this one wasn’t as good – pretty self-serving “Hey, look, i was friends with harper lee – and i have the letters to prove it!”

“something needs to change” – from my former pastor at Brook Hills – david platt – was actually about a trip he took when he was there – so i started reading it thinking it was current but also thinking, “i think i’ve heard this before” – and i had:)
