I've heard the audio version is excellent, too. Schools were closed here on Monday and delayed today due to wind chill/cold - this is getting ridiculous! The lake is very beautiful in the summer and the fall colors are amazing. I change my header photo seasonally, so stay tuned :)JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-57879002338988631212014-01-28T16:21:07.930-05:002014-01-28T16:21:07.930-05:00I'm so glad to know you liked The Gravity of B...I'm so glad to know you liked The Gravity of Birds.

It's a very inspiring book to me, just the kind of determination and courage I love the most in life.
