Elevator pitch sounds pretty good. Red at the bone hmm not so sure about. But they both sound good and I am excited!

Different formats have been released on different days it seems.
Elevator Pitch was delivered to my Kindle app this morning. Next up after Tom Lowe's "The Orchid Keeper" which was delivered yesterday (I think Monday is still part of this week?)!

someone flag julam Berglund post please .. sorry Richard didn't mean to have your comment copy pasted.
I am personally not interested in any of these books
Wow Richard not interested in saving our planet! Wow!
No mention of Permanent Record?
Ditto Bikram... what about Snowden's Permanent Record?? I don't know if it will be a "great book" but I sure look forward to reading it, even if it *is* almost $20 a pop (sigh).

The planet has endured global floods, ice ages, and has been hit by meteorites (miss the Tyrannosaurus Rex?), and somehow we're supposed to be worried about saving the planet, which has been around for 4.5 billion years?

The Family by Louise Jensen in 2020The Starless Sky by Erin Morgenstern is a must read for many....
Nothing really interests me this week, sadly.
Although I do want to read some of these books listed above, there are others closer to the top of my pile...I’m most excited about other books that came out very recently: Margaret Atwood’s “The Testaments,” (sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale), and Barbara Hambly’s “Lady of Perdition,” (the latest in her long-running Benjamin January historical mystery series).
Added 4 of the 7 to my “Want to Read” list. :)

I find it extremely annoying. I like to follow legitimate comments on articles of which I am interested and I like eMail notifications but I do not like being bombarded with eMails for these crappy spam comments especially when the same spam is posted sometimes as often as 10 times!

Agreed.

Perhaps a rephrase... Saving the planet for future life as we know it now. Only so many catostraphes can be survived, maybe humans will be the final one.
