The Drunken Botanist- The Plants That Create The World's Great Drinks (2013)

AudiobookI really liked the idea of this book. Seemed neat to learn about alcohols roots from plants (pun intended?).I was hoping this would be more story-like, but it reads more like a textbook. It is pretty repetitive; you get the history, recipes, and tips.There are times in which it gets very...

The Drunken Botanist by Amy Stewart (Mar 19 2013) (2000)

I am happy to have this on my bookshelf and will refer to it many times, I'm sure. It was so fun to read about all the plants and to learn how they get turned into alcoholic beverages. This book was full of historical facts, not just plant information. Plus it has recipes for cocktails, how fun! ...

Wicked Bugs: The Louse That Conquered Napoleon's Army & Other Diabolical Insects (2011)

This is the third book by this author in this series that I've read. They're quick books, meant to give you more of an overview with a dash of humor than any sort of in-depth trip into entomology. This isn't really a reflection on the author/book itself, but I think I enjoyed her other books more...

Zbrodnie robali. Wesz, która pokonała armię Napoleona, i inne diaboliczne insekty (2012)

I was one of those weird kids who liked to squat down on the ground and look at insects. I remember my 1st grade teacher told my mother that I was a smart kid because during a fire drill, while all of the other kids were playing and goofing off, I was crouched down, playing with ants. This book...

Girl Waits with Gun

It had recently been given a fresh coat of white paint, and it sat behind a tidy front garden fringed in a cast-iron fence. Although the garden was covered in gray slush, there were twigs and stalks standing up through the snow, suggesting the possibility of hydrangeas under the windows later on ...
