Broken

Broken https://www.amazon.com/dp/1973162695/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_bWGgAb8JMWG5S

I love to read and write poetry so I got a copy of this book. I really enjoyed the authors writing and style. He really put his heart into these poems and shared them with the world. It is nice to read poems from a man that doesn’t hide his feelings and emotions. This book talks a lot about love and lost love.

One poem really stood out to me when I read it. It seems this is so true these days anymore.
              
                      Cold World.
It’s a cold world out there, but they keep talking global warming. I try to seek friends, but all I see are storms forming. I try to seek help, so I reach put my hand. But its lonlier than a strait man in the pen.

I recommend this book to poetry lovers out there. I enjoyed this book.

Destination Earth

https://www.amazon.com/Destination-Earth-Philosophy-World-Traveler-Writing-ebook/dp/B01GQKZZ52/ref=cm_cr_srp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

A pleasurable envy overtook my emotions when I read Destination Earth. I grew up reading National Geographic, imagining myself in distant lands. This book, based on an around the world Odyssey, approaches travel as full immersion into these foreign lands. I loved the way the writer set forth a philosophy to immerse yourself as you travel, even considering the "difficulties and struggles" that a traveler inevitably faces at some point during his explorations. I also liked the inserted vignettes with the travel stories that always have something substantial to teach. One in particular, still has me thinking. In “Legs and Arms” he writes, “My legs are the symbol of my strength and independent spirit. My arms are the symbol of my weakness and my dependent nature.” A fascinating read that brought me back to my childhood love of NG and ignited my wanderlust.

This book is a real story from this Author. It starts off as she is a high school senior inspiring to be a model. She went to an all girls school so not much fun there. She is the middle child and was often ignored by her mother.
She met a man that said he's a photographer. Took a couple shots of her and called later to tell her they were accepted. He tells her he has 4 outfits picked out and asks her to meet him Sat at 9. She meets her friends in the village and at clubs on the weekend and rode the train home alone at night.
What happened to the Author to put her through hell was sad but the story is very inspirational. She was able to pick herself up and get herself out of hell to share her story with us all. She is a survivor. I enjoyed this book and recommend it.

This book takes place end of 1800's with Sergeant James Taft. The 4.5 year war between the North and South had ended and James didn't know what to do now. He tried to go home to his mother and his brother and his family. He was too depressed there and decided to head west.

When he got to Oregon he overheard men talking about  trapping and fur trading. He decided to give that a try next. He became to lonely out in the woods alone and ended up going back to civilization.

This book shows real emotion and how soldiers really feel after they've been to war. If you like stories from the war I'm sure you will like this book. This is the second book I've read from this Author. He is a really good Author and his books are easy to follow, read, and keep up with what’s going on in the story. I love his books and am ready to read his next one.
