The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman |
(updated 3/11/2000) (Yeah, yeah, yeah - I need to update this
again. 8/30/2000 :o)
Shadow in the North by Philip Pullman
The sequel to The Ruby in the Smoke features Sally Lockhart,
now 22 years old and running her own business. Set in England in
1878, this is a good historical novel for teens, but we grown-ups
can enjoy it too.
Captured by Aliens: The Search for
Life and Truth in a Very Large Universe
by Joel Achenbach
Achenbach, a Washington Post reporter and former Why Things Are columnist, does everything
from interviewing Carl Sagan to attending a UFO convention in his
exploration of the search for extraterrestrial life.
Organizing from the Inside Out by Julie Morgenstern
I usually don't buy these sorts of books because there are so
many of them telling you what to do with your life, but I heard
an interview with Morgenstern on NPR's Fresh Air last year. I had
scribbled her name down then, and now that I'm trying to
reorganize my apartment to make better use of my space, this has
helped me reassess what goes where without being overwhelmed by
the task.
