There is structure to this book, but you dont have to stay on the paths, you are free to explore it The book means to show how we think about space and how we use space to think. The premise is audacious: spatial thinking, rooted in perception of space and action in it, is the foundation for all thought. The foundation, not the entire edifice.

Book description: Naomi Shaw used to believe in magic. Twenty-two years ago, she and her two best friends, Cassidy and Olivia, spent the summer roaming the woods, imagining a world of ceremony and wonder. They called it the Goddess Game. The summer ended suddenly when Naomi was attacked. Miraculously, she survived her seventeen stab wounds and lived to identify the man who had hurt her. The girls testimony put away a serial killer, wanted for murdering six women. They were heroes. For decades afterward, the friends have kept a secret worth killing for. But now Olivia wants to tell, and Naomi sets out to find out what really happened in the woodsno matter how dangerous the truth turns out to be.
this is the overarching theme of the book, Children of Memory by Tchaikovsky. Great .

Top nine (new) posts on the blog in 2023
Library books returned Jan 7, 2024 (today!)
My books:
The Road to Roswell - road trip with aliens, classic westerns, and all the notes of a romcom. Kind of ridiculous but really fun. I should probably subscribe to Connie Willis's mailing list so I know when stuff is coming out but the new release shelf had my back.
Crumbs - sweet, magical coming of age and romance. World has a similar vibe to the unfinished webcomic Aerial Magic so if you're sad about never getting an ending to that one you might enjoy this!
Wolfsong - I read 165 pages but decided picking it up was a chore and I didn't really want to read 700 pages of this. There's a low-level continuous sense of foreboding over top of slow character development and the main character constantly saying he's slow/stupid and it wasn't for me.
The Last Dragon King - trope-y but in a good, relax and enjoy the familiarity kind of way. I was probably more fond of it because I read it after my meh experience with Wolfsong.
Library of Things: a giant walk-on snakes and ladders board. Kiddo loved it but parents did not appreciate having the giant (heavy) foam die launched at our heads.
Videos:
Pokmon Clash of Ages movie. Kiddo enjoyed it.
Pokmon Sun and Moon Ultra Adventures - this got taken off Netflix and kiddo wanted a rewatch. Still fun!
Kid books:
Everybody Says Meow - cute book where everyone most definitely does not say meow, (but the game gets changed to be more inclusive when it turns out not everyone can meow)
Something Good - kids covering up bathroom graffiti of something bad with a mural that helps them deal with the feelings that having something bad in their school has caused.
City Green - cute story about a community garden with pointers on how to get official permission to use a public space this way.
My Grandpa is grand - super cute pictures
My Brother Is Away - story about a girl who goes to visit her brother in prison.

New blog post: Spotlight on Monopoli and Polignano in Puglia!
Reading this book, "Rise and kill first, the secret history of Israel 's targeted assignations", quite interesting because it's clear the current fight against Hamas and Hezbollah in and outside Isral, is nothing new, lots of parallels with the past
