Contact by Carl Sagan
(Actually "listening to" as I'm driving alone 800 miles returning from a holiday to see my daughter and grandchildren)

I listen to Audilbe as much as I read.

Contact and the drive through Idaho, Oregon, and Washington remind me of my dad who passed last summer. He is the smartest, strongest man I've ever known an Sagan's narratives of cosmic things I will never fully understand remind me of conversations with my dad...I've shed necessary tears on this trip.

This was a good book.

I doubt if I will ever go to New York again - it is tiresome and expensive - so instead I picked up at the library Lonely Planet 'Discover New York City' (2018), with everything I would love to see, again or for the first time.

I don't seem to ready for that book, I will wait for the right opportunity.

Instead I start reading 'The Heart's Invisible Furies' by John Boyne (2017)
