Every time I read Katherine Center, I feel buoyed up in a sea of troubles. I come away thinking the novel was more than a romance. Her characters in this book are Katie, a video producer making a recruitment video for the Coast Guard featuring rescue swimmer Hutch. Sounds straightforward, right? It's not. It's quirky, uplifting, and insightful. It has sun, water, dogs, hunks, and a bathing suit phobia.

The Collected Regrets of Clover by Mikki Brammer reminded me of Frederik Bachman's book A Man Called Ove in spirit, though the details were quite different. It started slowly, building the case that death doula Clover Brooks is merely existing, not living her life. She has one friend, three pets, and lots of regrets. The regrets aren't all hers. She keeps three notebooks, Advice, Regrets, and Confessions, filled with the words of those she's served as they died. Reading the novel was similiar to watching a baby grow from unaware newborn to bright and interactive adult. I would classify it as a feel good read.

There are many sci-fy novels about Artificial Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence by Thomas R. Weaver is a good addition to the ouvre. Sci-Fi is good place to work out questions. The novel explores a planet on the edge of climate collapse and desperate for solutions. So desparate that the world has voted to create a dictator with the specific purpose of saving humanity. One of the candidates is an AI construct named Solomon. Investigative journalist, Marcus Tully, suspects things are being manipulated, but who is pulling the strings? The plot is fast-paced and surprising. It reads like an action movie.
