The Samurai's OctopusThe Samurai’s Octopus by Jonelle Patrick
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

For a fan of Shogun (Richard Chamberlain) and the newer version, I felt I fell into the female side of the story.

Jonelle Patrick tells stories like no one else. She gets deep into history or other sciences to solve mysteries, and leads the reader to feel into Japanese worlds past and present. That is why she is one of my favorite authors.

The Kindle version was best for me because I could use text-to-speech. I plan to read this again.

Give it a try, see what you think!

We the Women: The Hidden Heroes Who Shaped AmericaWe the Women: The Hidden Heroes Who Shaped America by Norah O’Donnell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Norah O’Donnell (Author, Narrator), Kate Andersen Brower (Author) wrote this book that should be required reading in all history classes. In fact, as much time as we were forced to spend on males and war, we were forced to struggle through in school as girls. Knowing that women were alive and contributing to society, laws, and even wars would have given me a bit more self-esteem, along with the other women growing up in my day.

Sure, we’ve all heard of Betsy Ross. Yes, she was included. But I certainly didn’t see myself sewing a new flag. Knitting a hat now puts me in that league, I guess.

Anyway, I was able to pick up this audiobook from Libby. I barely got it done in time as it was due today. I may buy this later as I want to study it and become more versed in Women’s Herstory.
