  15. C. J. Box: Blood Trail (Joe Pickett, Book 8). Berkley. Adult Mystery. Completed March 1, 2016, on MP3.
  16. Nikhil Goyal: Schools on Trial: How Freedom and Creativity Can Fix Our Educational Malpractice. Doubleday. Adult Nonfiction. Completed March 2, 2016, on Kindle. I thought that Goyal did a nice job of laying out the problems with our current public educational system. He is very passionate about it! I didn't find his solutions (get rid of the entire system of compulsory education in this country and start over) to be very practical, but the book overall is well-researched and thought-provoking.
  17. Andrew Hacker: The Math Myth: And Other STEM Delusions. The New Press. Adult Nonfiction. Completed March 2, 2016, on MP3. This book is somewhat controversial, particularly among mathematicians, but I thought that Hacker made some interesting points, particularly around gender differences in math testing and their impact on gender ratios at elite colleges. I think that the general idea that schools should focus more on imparting numeracy at a younger age is a good one, though Hacker's attacks on Common Core and math professors seemed a bit over the top.
  18. Ace Atkins: Robert B. Parker's Lullaby. G. P. Putnam's Sons. Adult Mystery. Completed March 9, 2016.
  19. Heather Shumaker: It's OK to Go Up the Slide: Renegade Rules for Raising Confident and Creative Kids. Tarcher Press. Adult Nonfiction. Completed March 14, 2016. SO good. I wish all parents and teachers could read this book.
