I loved the Fountainhead but I couldn't get through Atlas Shrugged...I think I read the first 800 pages or so and it just didn't keep me going past that. Maybe I read it too close to the Fountainhead. I am willing to try it again.

Stephen King's books usually scare me because they are a pretty good study of human nature. In this story, a governmental "plague" experiment gets released and spreads like wildfire across the world, killing off 99.4% of the population. The remainder start having two different dreams-one of an elderly woman, and one of a man with no face. They end up in Denver to have a showdown with the man with no face. Society eventually starts to build as more people come to one place, and it makes me wonder if things would go down like King says they would. Would we learn anything from mistakes of the past? Or eventually, would society rebuild along the same lines? It's also pretty scary to think of how much society would change-no money, no jobs, no health insurance, no doctors, no hospitals, no cars, although eventually they do get the power back on and there's limited TV, so that's good :) Anyway, I've read this book before and it was always one of my favorites. I always like to imagine how brave or resourceful I would be if I was one of the fortunate immunes (because no one ever dreams that they are a failure in an alternate reality). Would I find a way to trek across country to Denver? Could I figure out how to forage for food and learn what was good to eat or not? If I got hurt, or someone around me did, would I know what to do? I love those epic showdowns between good and evil, but it does scare me because in these types of stories, it never seems like good really WINS, for good, hands down forever. Evil always finds a way to sneak back in. Is it because people are inherently bad? I've never really believed that but maybe they are. Or maybe it isn't people that's bad, maybe it is just civilization. I don't know, but I'd like to thank Stephen King for making me wonder about it!

The author, Julia Glass, wrote The Three Junes which I liked a lot and think about sometimes. I enjoyed the book, particularly because characters from The Three Junes were mentioned, and one of the characters played a part in this novel as well. Unfortunately, I found one of the main characters in the book, Greenie, to be irritating. The story lines about her foolish decisions let me down, however, I truly liked Walter. He was the character that saved the book for me.

i thought it was decent but nothing shocking or awe-inspiring. maybe i'm too cynical, i don't know. i felt like every single character was a robot. there's no love lost when someone dies, or even if the main character is bullied. and the bullying is very "meh" to me. even the bits about eli being a vampire (the why's and how's and who's and when's of it) were never fully fleshed out. the only thing the author did right was scenery. or i should say, if it wasn't human or possessing human qualities, he could describe it for you and make you feel like you were there, or staring at it, or holding it, or were even able to smell it. kind of makes me wonder what he wrote before he became a novelist.

This book is a pleasant guided tour through one of the best known museums in New York. It is also a history of where I work. AMNH is a massive place with a great history, a history that isn’t as well organized as Preston’s book would let you believe. The institutional memory is spotty, and not well-organized. I have spent some days digging around old files and found some odd things myself, but not about objects that are quite as famous as the ones in this book. And so I am thankful to have this resource. Preston does a very good job in creating quick biographical portraits of the important players in the museum. I don’t know if anyone involved in “A Night at the Museum” has read Dinosaurs in the Attic but they certainly missed out on a lot of great opportunities for real characters, stories, and events, more than Teddy Roosevelt and a gum-chewing statue. I have used this book as a guide to some of the less celebrated objects that are on display. It is very enjoyable to read about an object one night, and see it the next day at work. This book puts the museum’s cursory label decks to shame, not that I blame the AMNH editorial staff (whom I work with) but rather I blame how museum artifacts are consumed. I don’t think many people would stop to read 500 words about a diorama, no matter how many people died to produce it. I’m very glad to have read Dinosaurs in the Attic, and I wish that there were a few more volumes to wander through, because, to be perfectly honest, the museum is just too damn big, and even I can’t get into all of the rooms.

Lots of short stories. Average.

Galileo's Daughter offers a fresh perspective into Galileo's life and scientific pursuit. Sobel shares a selection of Suor Maria Celeste's letters to her father. Alas, Galileo's responses were destroyed, hence we'll never know their content. At times I found the book slow, filled with the religious layers of Galileo's life. I suppose this is due to my disapproval of religious power-struggle effect on science, but they're important pieces to the story. I really enjoyed revisiting Galileo's paramount contributions to physics and astronomy within the context of his life and times. The last hundred pages, or so, of the book were the most interesting to me, and I must confess I cried at the end. Beyond the science and religion of the book, this is a story of a father and daughter, who possessed brilliant minds, that fought against the religious confines of their times.
