I love stories of time travel and things that grapple with quantum physics. (Not So Secretly, I would like to figure both out fully).
This book is not too heavy on the technical end, but it does induce some thought and is a very good science fiction.
What if you kept traveling through the same week of terrible disaster and, in each instance, tried to gain some insight to end it? What if you began to fall in love as you experienced the same things?
If this appeals to you, read the book. It was lighter than other things I have read lately.
Thoroughly engaging, outstanding story: 5 Stars.
The American Civil War is a subject I return to from time to time. Erik Larson did not disappoint in The Demon of Unrest.
Mr. Larson made history feel alive in this book. He transports the reader to those days with his research work.
I have been to Fort Sumter, and this book reminds me heavily of the feelings experienced there. The pivotal role of the weeks leading up to the bombardment is fascinatingly described.
As always, Larson delivered the story with details that coax one deeper in. I give it a solid: 5 Stars.

There are moments when nothing comes right, and then there are times we live again. The mission is to balance everything so it holds together enough that we do not die.
Anxiety can lead to panic, and our edges may fray. The trick is to tuck the fabric and sew another set of seams to help us face living alive. Those seams form a roadmap. We follow our path through the struggle and trials. However, it may not have the proper signage, and our “good path study (GPS)” may not know how to look for possibilities.
There are trips and falls along some byways. Wrong turns, lessons learned, every day we compete to better ourselves. The journey is not always fair but often lets us find simple joys. The texture of the paper beneath the pen is healing as the soul speaks. The welcome voice of family or friends bequeaths us smiles.
The opportunity to start over and come into a place where Love abounds is a beautiful blessing. No one has the answers to what we need, but if attention is paid, intuition may supply our longing. We follow our hearts and listen to our spirit’s guidance.
I am grateful I am out of the inhumane rays of the sun. Texas, this far south, never cools down. Sleep evaded me last night, but I am trying to prepare for a better night. I appreciate that God gives peace so rest and restoration occur. Nothing I do seems enough, but there still abides hope.
PROMPT: Are you coming apart or moving forward? Even in the breaking, a story is threaded through. You are moving, and that is all that is required. If you have your pieces of peace in order, that is wondrously grand. Create something that is a testimony of this moment in your search for purpose and meaning.
I write a lot of haiku, and the ones shown run over lines because the paper is not very big. You should try writing this counted syllable form as a warm-up to more intense creation. The counts are 5-7-5, and there is no rhyme scheme. If you are a visual artist, you can still work on the exercise because when we write by hand, it is an artistry of its own.
I think that is as much as I have right now. I hope your day is full of blessings. Find the discipline you need to reach your creativity and fill your life until it overflows. Remember, you are forever loved. Be a star shining that you might lend another person light. Love, and then keep on loving more. This is why we are given life.
