Things That Are: Encounters with Plants, Stars and Animals by Amy Leach
3.0
This book took AGES to read.
How do I describe this book?
A mix of descriptions in the middle of factual information on the biology and evolution of animals. It’s like when a science teacher decided to write poetry?
The Guardian said “These are the gold flakes you scatter on the rice dish of your everyday reading” and I couldn’t agree more.
It’s hard to read this consecutively because all the chapters are all written in a manner that requires full attention otherwise you miss out. The descriptions are new and takes time to catch on so it was exhausting to catching up.
