Are you going to publish under the name Matthew King? I’ll be on the lookout for it!

“We are, each of us, largely responsible for what gets put into our brains, for what, as adults, we wind up caring for and knowing about. No longer at the mercy of the reptile brain, we can change ourselves.”

- Carl Sagan, Cosmos

It’s the most riveting book I’ve ever read.

RFC planes were shot down or crashed and British POWs were taken to German prison camps during WWI. They quickly comprised schemes of escape to Holland, neutral territory.

Their perseverance, tenacity and brilliance is admirable.

Thank you for your service to this country and its people, Senator Booker!! 🫶🏻

Fam, remember three years ago when Cory Booker brought tears to all of our eyes when he lifted up Ketanji Brown Jackson?

“You are worthy.”

That’s who he is. That’s who he’s always been.

“Gatsby-era noir at its best.” - Erik Larson

This is the true story of George Remus, a former lawyer turned brilliant bootlegger who once owned 35% of all liquor in the United States. George Remus’s opulent lifestyle inspired F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Jay Gatsby!

There’s another book I have an eye on, The Hidden Life of Otto Frank. This book kind of rotates between history, the research team’s processes and theories, back to history and so on. I like knowing each side to everything.

You’re so sweet! I’m so impressed you wrote a book in a week, I’ll check it out!

My Favorite Murder - The Eugene Bullard episode, I believe it’s number 218 or around there. Despite the podcast name, they do tell wholesome stories in history from time to time.

It’s a true story as if The Great Gatsby meets Ocean’s Eleven at the turn of the 20th century. Arthur Barry was so suave and brazen, I couldn’t put it down. One of the best I ever read.

I’m in Iowa and I also finished it last week! *waves*

And then after that if you need to let out a good cry, Friday Afternoon Club by Griffin Dunne

A Gentleman and a Thief by Dean Jobb. My favorite book of not only last year but one of all time. It’s like the Great Gatsby meets Ocean’s Eleven at the turn of the 20th century. A true tale I wish they’d make into a movie.

I know where you stand, silent in the trees

Awesome, thank you!!

Can you share some of the plot without spoilers? Judging a book by its cover and it looks neat

StoryGraph is a great Black, woman-owned, easy to navigate app that tracks your library and pages and doesn’t share your data with third parties. There’s a nifty Recommendations section I got Braiding Sweetgrass from. 🫶🏻 #BookSky #Books #Bookworm #reader

This is in my TBR pile! I heard The Trees is also a wonderful book authored by him.

I love to add them to my chicken Alfredo. They compliment the sauce.
