2019 FAVORITES

Loved the immersive world that Erin Morgenstern creates in this book that has it all; secret doorways, an underground world, love, loss, and the power of stories.

Robin Wall Kimmerer brings her unique perspective on the natural world as a storyteller, botanist and member of the Potawatomi Nation. The result is a jewel of a book that weaves science, culture and love together. It may change your perspective on the natural world and our place in it.

Latest from Naomi Klein, a collection of essays on the crisis that we seem to keep treating like the elephant in the room.

Ideo has been an innovation leader for many years now. This is a great little read about some of their methodologies that can be applied to any industry.

I traveled to New Mexico this fall and this book kept me company, I’ve always been interested in the history of the Southwest and this book is a great introduction. His travels to the remote corners of the region, a feat in itself sometimes, and his recounting of finding sites that no one has seen for hundreds of years appealed to the archaeologist in me.

Austin Kleon is great for little books that pack a powerful creative self esteem punch. This edition is for dealing with getting out of creative ruts and how to fill the creative well.

* Full disclosure: Creative Breath is a Powell's Partner. When you buy a book through one of the above links, you won’t pay more, but I receive a small percentage. It works great for everyone, you find out about great books and I can read more. Why Powell's? Powell's is a Pacific Northwest institution that maintains a huge retail location in Portland. I want to keep local bookstores going because nothing beats getting lost in shelves of books!
