Ann and 10 other people liked Rebecca's review of Book of Lives: A Memoir of Sorts: "Delightful though dense with detail and historical context. Although Atwood effortlessly recreates her experience at any age, her perspective is salted with hindsight. She grew up between the wilderness and the city because of her entomologist father" Read more of this review »

This was profound on many levels. First there is the man who is cheating on his wife with a secret clone he has made of her.... guess, her looks were okay according to him. Then there is the almost-mad science of it all. But mostly despite the unusual ...more

“Happiness doesn't lie in conspicuous consumption and the relentless amassing of useless crap. Happiness lies in the person sitting beside you and your ability to talk to them. Happiness is clear-headed human interaction and empathy. Happiness is home. And home is not a house-home is a mythological conceit. It is a state of mind. A place of communion and unconditional love. It is where, when you cross its threshold, you finally feel at peace.”
― Dennis Lehane
