Posted by Karly GreenP. I have read excerpts of the classic, Silent Spring, by Rachel Carson, and it’s on my bookshelf, but I haven’t read it cover to cover (*shock*), so I won’t claim to have read it. I get many of my book inspirations from the David Suzuki Foundation book club. I am also gleaning new books to read from this book list.
