Official TBR Review: This Will Be My Undoing

35069544
In these autobiographical stories Morgan shares her experiences as a Woman of Color in her early years and as a professional writer. It would be easy to just default to the world is racist when reading these stories, but it's much more complicated then that. Morgan shines a light on the roles all of us play based on our cultures, and nurturing influences. She also has some beautiful inspiring words on surviving and thriving. A very satisfying read that will resonate strongly with WOC and inspiring to all readers.

Official TBR Review: Astrophysics For People In A Hurry

32191710

This is the book for an armchair science geek. It's a primer on how science has come to explain the universe to us and all that we still need to learn. This was a quick and informative read with a very welcoming dialogue between author and writer. I learned so much and now have a desire to learn even more.

This is a fascinating look at a true lawsuit between Thomas Edison and Westinghouse and the lawyer who worked the case. With the invention of the light bulb a series of similar inventions made for hundreds of lawsuits. 

Greed, fame and egos all get in the midst of these lawsuits and one man has to decide what side he ultimately wants to be on. A thrilling read based on true facts.
