Looking for a good book for this summer? Here is a compilation of some books that the Program in Physical Therapy faculty and staff have been opening so far this summer:
Kim Levenhagen:
The Hunger Games - a trilogy
Fun read and does not require a lot of thought process. Plus my kids and their friends were reading them so we had an impromptu book club by the pool.
Mary Ann Bindbeutel:
Defending Jacob William Landay
Interesting portrait of a family in crisis when the fourteen year old son is accused of murder. Slow starter but once I got into it I enjoyed it.
The story of Louie Zamperini - a track and field star of the 1930's, who participated in the Berlin Olympics, was shot down over the ocean in WWII, adrift in the Pacific for over a month, captured by the Japanese, held as a POW, finally makes it back to face even more obstacles. Great story, I was blown away by what this man endured and overcame.
Jessica Moscato:
Business Analytics
I'm sure this will not be popular and I do not enjoy it one bit.
Kate Lochhead:
Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
Won the 1974 Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction, which isn’t something I would normally pick up. Sometimes hard to get through, but extremely thought provoking. Makes you examine the ordinary and see it for how extraordinary it is.
