Book Rec from Sara B.

Posted on in Book, OverDrive/Libby.

Born to Run by Christopher McDougall

Sara B. says: “Looking for some motivation to get moving this Spring? Join Chris, Caballo, and Tarahumara for a race of a lifetime! From the Copper Canyons to Leadville, CO, it’s enough to escape from your living room couch for a few hours and go explore with this odd group of guys! This book has danger, teamwork, science, endurance, and inspiration! I always read a passage or two before I go out running!”

Book Rec from Eric

Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson

Eric says: “Meet Hiro Protagonist, hacker, swordsman, and delivery driver for Uncle Enzo’s CosaNostra Pizza, Inc; and Y.T., the skateboarding courier with mad investigation skills. Follow these characters and others in Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson as they navigate a future of corporatized communities, governments in exile, ocean going religious cults, and a computer virus that threatens to destroy human language and society. This book is layered with action, philosophy, and ironic, tongue-in-cheek commentary on today’s world projected onto a disconcertingly possible cyberpunk-dystopian near future.”
