Rated Tears of the Cheetah: The Genetic Secrets of Our Animal Ancestors 6/10

Although dated (published in 2003), Dr. O'Brien's compilation of stories of his work in genetic sleuthing is a great read for those who are beginning in the field. In particular, the early chapters on the importance of genetic diversity to a healthy species is a message relevant to both the endangered animal and human animal worlds.

Rated The Girl on the Train 8/10

Fast-reading, well-written, contemporary psychological murder mystery told from the perspectives of three young British women. Interesting, flawed characters - Hawkins did a particularly good job of integrating the experience of alcoholic blackouts. Would be great to read while on an extended train ride :-)
