You made me remember Weekly Reader 'magazine' in elementary school!
Very cool 'articles' and advertisements for books there too. Cool
memories! :-)

I enjoyed the epic "The Postman" movie from Kevin Costner, so I tracked
down the book. Used to search out the used book stores for paperbacks
I could 'pack' with me easily. :-) I forget who wrote it, but he also
wrote one called Kiln People. Those are sci-fi, and the Postman is
more military sci fi.
Not military, but I'm reminded of Rewind by Ken Grimwood. And I
haven't mentioned my VERY favorite one - Thrice Upon a Time by
James P. Hogan.
Co> Lee Child - Reacher series
Loved the first movie and the television series. Thought about
reading those. They are worth it?
... You've taken a vow of silence?? Tell me about it.
