I want to be a doctor too

Used Library pass for museum which was excellent. Learned a lot about the Schuyler family, early Albany history and about life there on the 18th century. Thank you Bethlehem Public Library for this experience and so much more.

I loved it. I loved the bunnies

Adorable rhyming book

Just amazing insights, the perfect amount of philosophy balanced with humor.

I also wanted to love this book. It was an ambitious project, to weave an allegory based on the entire Bible, climate crisis, and End Times. I ended up feeling a little terrified (is that possible?), not so much by the apocalyptic events, but by the dynamic between the "wise" adolescents and the drugged/drunk/sex-crazed parents. The smug adolescents seemed just as unanchored morally, as they also dallied in drugs, sex, and drinking, although they were the "remnant" responsible for carrying on society post-storm. The book ended up with Eve (!) the main character, telling her brother he was right, Jesus is science and the Holy Ghost is the "things people make" or "art." The allegory and this conclusion felt altogether forced. I couldn't identity the Jesus character in this or understand how you can make an allegory of Christianity without the centrality of the cross or something cross-like? I'm not sure where I would have been located in this novel (which was a National Book Award Finalist). Maybe just swept out to sea with the other miscellaneous adult bodies. I accept that my generation added to the climate crisis and don't want to minimize this overarching idea. I also accept that the Bible gives believers responsibility for care of God''s world with His help. Maybe this is what allegory is meant to do, irritate us to action. After all, Jonathan Swift didn't really want people to eat babies.

A fascinating read about eighteenth century colonial life in Maine based on the diary of a wife mother, gardener and healer;numerous challenges and adventures. Notably, the great great grandmother of Mary Hobart, MD, an early American female physician and the great aunt of Clara Barton. The author, ulrich,fills in the cultural and social logical makeup of family, male and female roles as well as community, religious and political matters at the time. Lives of severe hardships and challenges. Martha lived a difficult and admirable life.

I liked this story because it had to do with summer camp.

My favorite part is when it shows him in the army.

An overview of what is known of this great painter’s life and works - 1400-1455 - magnificent frescoes with commentary’s in the cloister of San Marco. In 2003, I was fortunate to view some of his frescoes during a Lands of Dominic Pilgrimage. Fra Angelico was one of the greatest Renaissance painters. Greatly enjoyed this book.
