Teaser Tuesday (5 June)


There is a Chinese proverb that says, "When the wind changes direction, there are those who build walls and those who build windmills." What will we do? 

p. 24, Hot, Flat, and Crowded: Why America Needs a Green Revolution. Thomas Friedman.

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly book event in which participants share excerpts from their current reads. Play along at Should Be Reading.

Nice teaser and very true. I don't read much nonfiction but might make an exception for this one. My teasers this week are from Big Sky Mountain by Linda Lael Miller and Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne. Happy reading!

I love this teaser! Non fiction usually isn't something I read but this has piqued my interest.
