It is only with the heart that one can see rightly;
what is essential is invisible to the
eye.”

Re: Favorite Book
Since the last time I've posted here my list has been updated:
Atonement by Ian McEwan
A Separate Peace by John Knowles
Siddhartha by Herman Hesse
Illusions by Richard Bach
Rogues (short story collection) compiled by George RR Martin
I have unfortunately not read many good fantasy books recently, I'm probably going to look into some of the ones on this list; I'm excited to see if some of these are going to end up as my favorites too!

Looking forward to anatomy, protein, fossils, and optics (NYS trial) this year!
