![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But is the technological mission of Warp Speed linked to the health mission of delivering a “ People’s Vaccine”? States’ Mission-oriented innovation agencies, especially the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), have proven to be critical in seeding the development of the cutting-edge mRNA vaccines. The plan neither prioritized vaccine recipients according to need, nor did it go far enough to address racial inequality in the distribution.Ĭlearly, creating safe and effective vaccines and creating equitable vaccination programs are two different things. In the United States, Operation Warp Speed met its manufacturing targets but stumbled in coordinating initial shipments. But the rollout has been far from perfect. LONDON – The development of COVID-19 vaccines in less than a year was clearly a major achievement. ![]() ![]() ![]() A great book for families to enjoy together. Argueta’s gift in seeing beauty, magic and fun in everything around him makes this book a treasure - avocados are like green precious stones, salt falls like rain, cilantro looks like a little tree and the spoon that scoops the avocado from its skin is like an excavating tractor.Īs in the previous cooking poems, Guacamole conveys the fun and pleasure of making something delicious and healthy to eat for people you really love.

Miracle Creek draws on Angie Kim’s own life as a Korean immigrant, former trial lawyer and mother of a real-life “submarine” patient. Who or what caused the explosion? The ensuing trial uncovers unimaginable secrets from that night―trysts in the woods, mysterious notes, child-abuse charges―as well as tense rivalries and alliances among a group of people. But when the Miracle Submarine mysteriously explodes, killing two people, a dramatic murder trial upends the Yoos’ small community. The book starts off with the day that will change so many lives in a small Virginia town. Young and Pak Yoo run an experimental medical treatment device known as the Miracle Submarine―a pressurized oxygen chamber that patients enter for therapeutic “dives” with the hopes of curing issues like autism or infertility. While I feel my review could just say over and over-read this book!!!-let’s take a closer look at it. Part mystery, riveting courtroom drama, character study, a focus of the complicated dynamic between mothers and children, an examination of the immigrant process to the U.S.–there’s so many layers. And it met my expectations and beyond- I was absolutely blown away by this novel. ![]() ![]() And I kept seeing more and more buzz for it so my excitement grew.

That said, I personally feel that in this aspect, STARCROSSED almost tries too hard. I can see fangirls drooling over this novel and eating it up. STARCROSSED will be the first major mythological series for teens posed to cross barriers and pull readers into an epic love story that transcends all barriers. Yes, the PERCY JACKSON books started this booming trend, but the middle-grade series only goes so far. STARCROSSED by Josephine Angelini is gearing up to do for mythology what TWILIGHT did for vampires and THE HUNGER GAMES is currently doing for Dystopian fiction. But even demigod powers might not be enough to defy the forces that are both drawing her and Lucas together-and trying to tear them apart. and when Helen first crosses paths with Lucas Delos, she has no way of knowing they're destined to play the leading roles in a tragedy the Fates insist on repeating throughout history.Īs Helen unlocks the secrets of her ancestry, she realizes that some myths are more than just legend. ![]() ![]() At school she's haunted by hallucinations of three women weeping tears of blood. Nightmares of a desperate desert journey have Helen waking parched, only to find her sheets damaged by dirt and dust. Helen Hamilton has spent her entire sixteen years trying to hide how different she is-no easy task on an island as small and sheltered as Nantucket. ![]() ![]() ![]() I should probably tell you a bit about the plot, right? Angel is a mildly successful photographer who comes home half drunk one night after unsuccessfully trying to seduce a guy he’s in love with to discover a young troll outside of his apartment. The style worked perfectly for the story, and it was probably one of my favourite things about the book. In addition, there’s samples from fairy tales and stories dealing with trolls. So throughout the book, there are (brief) excerpts from encyclopedias, websites, and more about trolls. ![]() You see, the book is set in a slightly alternate Finland, in which trolls have been discovered to be a real animal species. But there are also ‘academic’ sources woven in. There are several narrators, who usually get very short (2-4 page) chapters, which gives it a moment-by-moment narrative feel. It’s written in pastiche style, which I happen to love. ![]() ![]() And when I finally began reading, this book was nothing like I expected! When Tiina saw it there, she encouraged me to read it (and it’s in her list of Finnish classics). I placed Troll: a Love Story by Johanna Sinisalo on my GLBT challenge list in large part because I’ve never read any Finnish literature. ![]() |
