Eine Fotografin, 45, kein Partner, keine Kinder, keine Eltern mehr, geht auf eine Expeditionskreuzfahrt von Grönland nach Alaska. Sie ist froh, dass ihr Beruf es ihr erlaubt, »dauernd nach vorn zu sehen«. Doch natürlich melden sich die nicht zu Ende gedachten Gedanken und offenen Fragen, irgendwo zwischen der Enge an Bord unter nicht ausnahmslos angenehmen Mitreisenden (wie Schriftsteller, die Buchclub-Schreibkurse geben, oder Influencer mit fragwürdigen Tischmanieren) und den kühlen Weiten der Arktis. Der Blick der Erzählerin auf die anderen, die Natur und sich selbst ist so hintergründig-witzig wie warmherzig-entlarvend. Als das Schiff vor der vereisten Bellotstraße kehrtmachen muss, mit neuem Kurs auf Neufundland, begreift sie nach und nach, dass der Trick manchmal gerade im Beinahe-Ankommen besteht, auf Reisen wie im Leben.

great read
Format: Kindle
This was a great read, light and airy with just enough tension and angst to keep me glued. Both mains are authentic and brazen but in completely different ways. Loved the characterization and growth of each woman. Definitely give this one a go!

The Trans Issue
Format: Paperback
I couldn't give a higher rating because of the writer pushing trans issue in sports. All for anyone in sports however, when it is man to woman the deck is stacked. Not to mention they are on hormones , which is a drug. Any questions: US had a trans win gold in track and Canada won bronze in soccer, how do you think those women felt. IMO this is just the beginning, what do they need natural born women for. It's so wrong on so many levels for women. I You tubed it and MEN are speaking up for women, why aren't we doing it for ourselves. Back to the book in question, I'm just not objective enough to say more.

The strength of women and their strength of character
Format: Kindle
Willa and Sage began an unconventional relationship yet completed their journey in love. I loved the characters and plot of this book. I was inspired by Sage’s strength to defend Willa from the jabs of an aggressive friend, Ava. It was wonderful watching Ava grow even though she was a secondary character. That Sage remembered Rebecca’s plight and commit herself to a legacy of providing soccer camps for girls and trans players was incredible. A truly inspiring story. I heartily recommend this book and any others by this author. I love the way she writes and how she allows us to tag along with the journeys of her well developed characters and plot. I’m looking forward to more of her works. Thank you Peace

Poetry, Lyric, and the Mind of a Scholar
Format: Paperback
The first essay on the lyric is necessary reading for any poet. The whole book is excellent reading, often on the Appalachian writers. Excellent resource for scholars and casual readers. Highly recommend. Somehow the essays are both intimate and deeply theoretical. Powerful display of Jesse Grave's scope of thinking.

What is poetry?
Format: Paperback
I have been an avid reader of nearly every genre of written creativity except for poetry. Other than the rhythmic beautiful descriptions in certain pieces, the heart and soul of poetry has always escaped me. This book moved me closer to discovering and understanding that beat. It has a heavy focus on the Appalachian region, and taught me the deep purpose of cadence and the beauty of the simplicity found in that. Some of the poems are dark, some not so much. I really enjoyed this book and it showed me on a more personal level why poetry should be read and appreciated. Graves work is a treasure.
