I live a good time travel book, and thrilled to read the 2nd in this series. I had to rewind a few times to catch something I had missed, but that's on me and not the book. It moves fast. Pay attention or you might miss something, especially when they do some heavy foreshadowing.

Commitment, strength, perseverance. Des Linden is an impressive human being with strong convictions and massive drive. A well-written memoir that runners and non-runners will appreciate.

An intimate view into Tembi Locke's life and relationship with her husband and family and widowhood. This book hit me hard. Her husband died of the same cancer that my died of. It's a gripping story, told well. I w definitely in tear.
