    Historical Science Reading List

    February 17, 2019 / 1 Comment

    While working checkout, I came across this very interesting book called The Story of Western Science by Susan Wise Bauer. I’ve heard of this author before because she is very popular with a lot of the parents I talk with, but I haven’t heard of this particular book before. After flipping through it, I quickly realized that I wanted to read all of the works the author listed as reference material. The books start with the first science texts and early scientific methods and go through space exploration and advanced scientific theories.

    Madame Bovary Discussion

    February 10, 2019 / 2 Comments

    I randomly picked up Madame Bovary a couple weeks back and just read though it in a weekend. I had no idea what it was about or anything other than that it was only my classics club list. I was very surprise that I was able to get thourgh it soo fast considering its a “classic” and they have a notorious reputation for be hard and convoluted to read. Soo happy I read this book though. Possibly one of the best books of the year…and it’s still early February…. :O

    Overall, i liked the book. The ending was satisfying and appropriate. There were a few things left open...but i imagine those are for book 2. I'd def recommend this book and will certainly read book 2.
