I should mention a few of the books we’ve read recently in my book club.

One that stands out is Thinking in Pictures by Temple Grandin.  She is an autistic woman who is a gifted animal scientist. The book gives us an inside view of how her mind works-how she truly does think in pictures. It’s the clearest picture into the autistic mind I’ve ever read. She is a remarkable woman, and it is an incredible story, however, its not my favorite book. There is much of her story left out and the writing is not the best, but in the end, it doesn’t matter. It really is worth reading anyhow, and it’s a very fascinating and memorable book.
