Late Winter Reading

  • Bananas: How the United Fruit Company shaped the World by Peter Chapman
  • Electrified Sheep: Glass-eating Scientists, nuking the Moon, and more Bizarre Experiments by Alex Boese
  • Bitter Seeds by Ian Tregillis
  • A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving
The last two books were recommended by some friends in late February. I have to say that both books were good reads. Bitter Seeds's take on World War II was intriguing. Prayer was a powerful book about faith and I felt some similarities with the title character.
