edited to add links to the latest additions to my audible library:

Air by William Bryant Logan

Tyson's book was so good, I've been on a bit of a science kick. :D After The Righteous Mind, I'm actually leaning toward Bourdain's bloody valentine (snarkier version of Cooked?) or The Swerve, because I dig the notion of getting my history back on. Air and Oceans of Life would round out the elemental nature of the science kick, though.

Looking forward to your thoughts on The Gifts of Imperfection. It's been on my to-read list since about 1921, and so I have yet to embrace the part of who I am that does not immediately read books I have purchased.

LOL -- I have confronted, embraced and made my own that part of me. Some would say my to-read list constitutes hoarding; I say it gives many deserving books a good home.
