Turn of Mind

A heart breaking story about dementia. How a life is stolen and another is taken.

Not a fan of the format but it was a captivating story.

Gemini Summer

Being a Gemini I had to read this book. Of course it had NOTHING to do with that at all but I can be simple minded.


Two brothers, friends and enemies. One devastating afternoon changes it all. A dog. A dream. The Gemini mission.

A must read for summer.

A beautiful story of finding your family, your place and changing the way you look at yourself.
