distance, and a study in perspective can change your view on things. Many of

“My heart stopped. It just stopped beating. And for the first time in my life, I had that feeling. You know, like the world is moving all around you, all beneath you, all inside you, and you're floating. Floating in midair.

Here is the voting poll for the November 2021 BOTM Group Read. We did not have a theme for this month. I have reviewed the books and if there is something that may be "iffy" you will find that in the comments.
