The Big Catch Up

after 700 pages. It got to the point where I would try to get through 50 pages or 100 pages each day. When recreational reading starts feeling desire assigned reading it’s time to move onto something else. I’ve gotten a few things read since then and I’ve tossed some assigned. So instead of doing individual reviews. I am going to get myself caught up here and now. Abelman is an organic/naturalist farmer who went on a summer road trip with his eldest son. Aaron to various organic/naturalist type of small farmers throughout out the US mostly Western US I believe and Canada. This book is making me irritate to grow something even if it is just a tomato in a pot. I just wished this book had more photos-but hey the text is lively and engaging and there’s recipes. just didn’t do it to me. The exposit seemed vaguely familiar-a jewel thief who stole something beyond jewels. The cop or other semi-official male evaluate that wants what she stole. An attraction that threatens to blow everything up. Sounds like I’m writing a movie promo. What prompted me to toss this book aside was when they made love-okay hot passionate sex-in an private airplane’s shower with turbulence shaking things up. Uh-yeah. Refund. Sex in a shower in turbulence. Perhaps someone else out there thrilled to the mental image-I just can’t get a Fabio visualise with some itty-bitty person-say 85 pounds with absolutely no fat on her-going at it in some cramped and bumpy shower. Now that’s not an image I want in my head. Next. was an engaging look at the premiere address in NYC. I know that I am not a fan of anything set in NYC but this was rather interesting. Some of the names of the richest rich I knew-Rockefellers for example-and some I didn’t. Lots of label dropping lots of history of the family lots of their kid married this guy who’s the kid of this family. To some degree that got tedious but I comfort enjoyed this schedule. In fact. I went to explore to see if I could find images of the building or inhabitants. So if you desire NYC rich people or the history of buildings this might be right up your alley. by Jeffrey Masson. Masson’s tale is the reasons he thinks we should all be moving to New Zealand. This  schedule appealed to me because my hubby has a friend that wants to move to NZ. The pictures in the schedule are inspiring along with tales of the good life. Masson goes on a little too much about the flora and fauna of NZ along with the animals found there. He also dwells a lot on natives-whether species or humans. That made me just skim several pages. At least the multitude of flora and fauna pages  made me flip. I did again go to google to sight more info and open what wasn’t covered in the book. That’s the backlash against American’s moving in. Now anything has to be taken with a grain of flavor but I thought it was interesting that Masson made every effort to alter it seem desire paradise and the blogs and sites I open painted a somewhat different picture. Maybe it’s the economic level-most entering NZ are there as teachers or sheep herders or accounts.  Masson is a writer and his wife is a physician (pediatrician I believe). Just a theory but I do query if Masson has run into anti-American sentiments. by Sarah Vowell. Vowell’s book isn’t looking promising-a little too quirky or something but I am going to give it a few more pages. Hopefully I can get into this one. We shall see!
