I was reading "Heartland" by Sarah Smarsh. As I read, I began to realize I had been to each place she describe and near the end, she started mentioning names. I knew them personally. They weren't the names I was expecting.

Aside from that, it is a great book about growing up in poverty, ranch and farm life and changing political opinions.

How wonderful to read words that describe and chronicle a familiar experience or people

I have not read Heartland Maj Kim Patterson, but there was a Canadian TV series in Alberta, Named Heartland and it was a terrific... Somewhat similar ranch and farm life, with some poverty in their midst... I mostly enjoy fiction, to the likes of authors Michael Connolly, Brad Thor, John Grisham, Lisa Gardner, Brad Taylor, Lisa Jackson, Sandra Brown and Lee Childs...just to name a few... I just started reading a new John Grisham book entitled "The Whistler"... So far it is excellent.

Call of Duty I read after meeting Lieutenant Buck Compton from Band of Brothers at a book signing in 2009. The Chuck Yeager book I read about 5 years ago. I was an extra in the movie bright shining lie and I have skim through that book and I have yet to read the book Ardennes 1944.

Silk Roads, by Peter Frankopan. I'm about 20 pages in, appears to be quite good. Been a Central Asian nut since I broke a leg at 12 years old and discovered the Mongols in a set of old history books my dad had.
