Book Dedication: The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell
Why I Chose This Book: "The novel is from one of my favorite genres, sci-fi, though it includes elements of religion, linguistics, multicultural communication, spirituality and ethics, and more. The main character is a Jesuit from Puerto Rico, and now that I've been to PR I really want to re-read the novel!"

Book Dedication: This Lovely Life by Vicki Forman
Why I Chose This Book: "As a long-time certified NICU nurse, it is the story of babies born too early. It pairs nicely with my new role as a nurse educator, who teaches Healthcare Ethics for the college, as it is the journey of struggle and grief and ethical principles around life and death. It is a tear jerker! "
