An occasional blog about natural history, travel, books and writing ... and anything else that catches my attention.

The Reading Year: February
January's book-reading blitz went surprisingly well, so here are February's titles. Since there are fewer reading days, this month will be more cramped. Still, that's what makes it a challenge.
Fiction:
Geek Love by Katherine Dunn
The Beans of Egypt, Maine by Carolyn Chute
All the Birds, Singing by Evie Wyld
Sacred Games by Vikram Chandra
Havana Blue by Leonardo Padura
Flight Behaviour by Barbara Kingsolver
Non-fiction:
The Fishing Fleet by Anne de Courcey
Spanish Steps by Tim Moore
Persian Fire by Tom Holland
The Signal and the Noise by Nate Silver
The Lawless Roads by Graham Greene
Hell's Gates by Paul Collins
The book spider will be keeping an eye (or eight) on my efforts.
