Review: Late Migrations

 Late Migrations: A Natural History of Love and Loss by Margaret Renkl


Giving up on this at about halfway. It's a collection of very short essays, typically two or three pages long, alternating between her childhood memories and modern day observations of nature. All interesting, I guess, but all so brief and shallow that I had to keep forcing myself to keep on picking up the book.  I'd read a couple of essays, then finally get to one that was interesting and--bam! It was over. On to something totally different, and usually depressing.
