Julie, I also love some of your favorite authors
but had run out of authors that made my heart race with joy. Your list was amazing and Mon. I will go to our public library and order as many books from these authors as I can. Thank you. I live in an old part of a city with lots of native trees among the houses and a creek nearby. Most of the plants I have been planting are native. I especially love beetles, butterflies, moths, birds etc. Near by is a state park where I have had some training in the Master Naturalist program. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/25891393 Tree of Smoke: A Novel (Hardcover) by Denis Johnson

by Sue Monk Kidd

I live in the city in an older neighborhood.  I have had wonderful wildlife appear and am currently trying to make my yard a little nature preserve.  I am retired, spend lots of time observing, and am planting plants to attract native bees.  I loved this book and all others by her. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/25809840 to: Of Mice and Men (Centennial Edition) by John Steinbeck
