"Four Squares follows Artie Anderson, a sixty-year-old ghostwriter in NYC who finds out on his birthday that his only friends are moving across the country---and his luck only gets worse after he takes a bad fall and breaks his foot. Artie decides to join GALS, the local LGBTQ+ senior center, in the hopes of easing some of his loneliness. What follows is a heartwarming and oftentimes very funny story about finding community later in life.

Getting to spend time in Artie’s head as he tentatively makes new friends was, for me, the highlight of this book; he’s such a realistic yet loveable character, and you learn through flashbacks about all the people he loved and lost along the way, people who continue to shape his life even long after they’re gone. Artie’s story proves that it’s never too late to start over again, no matter how intimidating that might seem."

"Trucks, Halftracks, Tanks! I am a junkie for WW2 history and this book covers various vehicles famous, infamous, and everything in between. It just scratches the itch of how and why they came to be, from engine horsepower and gearbox ratios to the glorious caliber of various tanks from the M3 Honey to the SU-152. It covers the range of armor, including their various design philosophies from the AEC Matador truck to the universally identifiable Willys Jeep, to the insane Italian designs.

World War II Trucks and Tanks dives into details that are deeper than most history books without going into the deep numbers that make it feel like a lesson in an AP history class. Ok, honestly I am reading this to learn more about the Sonderkraftfahrzeug (SdKfz or Special Purpose Vehicle) line because of the SdKfz 251 Hanomag and SdKfz 2 Kettengrad."
