Re: What's everyone reading?
Sure Supergirl – I’d be happy to do that.
Here is a partial synopsis (don’t want to give too much away):
The breathtaking story of five brothers who bring each other up in a world run by their own rules. As the Dunbar boys love and fight and learn to reckon with the adult world, they discover the moving secret behind their father’s disappearance.
At the center of the Dunbar family is Clay, a boy who will build a bridge—for his family, for his past, for greatness, for his sins...more
Here is a link: www.goodreads.com/book/show/7767276-bridge-of-clay
The style is really indescribable; don’t know that I’ve ever encountered this style … Maybe – eclectic?
And – it is fiction.

Re: What's everyone reading?
"The Addiction Spectrum" This book just came out a few weeks ago and I've just started reading it. It is written by a pediatrician Dr. Paul Thomas who I follow on You Tube. I have no addiction that I know of... unless its a food addiction. Which is what Im exploring. The main reason I got this book is because I really like Dr. Thomas and as a nurse I like reading and learning. https://www.harperacademic.com/book/9780062836885/the-addiction-spectrum/

Re: What's everyone reading?
"A Bridge Of Clay" by Narkus Zusak. It just came out, so I don't even have it yet,but will order soon. This is the author who wrote the great story "The Book Theif" (one of the best books I ever read).
It has taken the author 13 years to write this book!! Am really looking forward to it.

Re: What's everyone reading?
I follow a pediatrician on you tube, I love his videoes and he is quite likable. I recently learned that he has a past history of alcoholism and also has a recovery center he established in Callifornia. It is for all kinds of addictions. He recently hosted and "Addiction Summit" online which I found to be very interesting. During the summit I learned that he had a new book coming out. Since I was impressed with his knowlege and already liked him, I pre-ordered his book. It arrived today.
The doctor's name is Paul Thomas, MD. (check him out on you tube). The book is titled "The Addiction Spectrum". I just started reading it, Within the first 20 pages I am already determining that this will be a good read.
It is described as "A compassionate, hollistic, approach to recovery.
I do not have an Addiction (that I know of) but the book covers all kinds of addictions (drug, alcohol, gambling, ,eating, screens etc)
Im looking forward to learning more about these addictions and approaches for interventiions, and prevention.
I'm a retired RN and I love learning new things.

Re: What's everyone reading?
I read the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night. I found it very uncomfortable and frustrating, but well worth reading. It still bothers me, but it really got to me.
