You're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but this one just captivated me. I loved the idea of a memoir about falconry called "Lift". The book isn't quite what I pictured it would be--it has its moments of being uncomfortable (recalling a very challenging childhood), but you can't fault a book for being true to itself. I imagine it took a lot of courage to write this book, and the storytelling is really quite good. Maybe it's because of where I'm at in my own life or my unfair expectations of the book, but I didn't just fall in love with it. Still, I'm glad to have it on my bookshelf as part of my "bird" library.
