This one has been sitting new and unread on my bookshelf since my college days in the late 1980s.

Journal Entry 2 by grubsneerg from Greensburg, Pennsylvania USA on Saturday, February 16, 2008
Space and astronauts have interested me as long as I can remember--perhaps it was in the stars for me since I was born during Apollo 8's first manned orbit of the moon. I finally saw the movie "The Right Stuff" last weekend and thought this would be the opportune time to finally read the book as it was all fresh in my mind. The characters, the situations, and the technology were easy to visualize, and I was able to concentrate on the story of the Original Seven that didn't make it into the film. Two very different experiences, but equally enjoyable. It was my first Tom Wolfe; I really *dig* his writing style.

Congratulations--you caught a book!
It may have seemed odd to find this lying around, but rest assured it's not lost and it's not forgotten. Feel free to read it, pass it on to a friend, or release it in the wild like I did. You can even keep it, if you like, but are books really happy when they're just sitting on a shelf? I'd have to say no.
