      This is a really fascinating book that I received from my stargazing DH for Yule. The author doesn't just say he enjoys looking at the stars - he takes the reader on a month-by-month journey on what is visible in the night sky. Each month has its own astronomical view, as the chapters are the months of the year. I'm on February cuz, well, it's February and that's what the rules say! Calia talks about how life fascinated him with astronomy, then life got in the way until a fateful autumn day when he decided to build himself a telescope. For gazing at the stars, at night, in Connecticut, starting in, oh, about January. Ya gotta love his dedication. And I'm learning a lot about stars. And did I mention, his prose is lyrical and poetic? Brings a lot to the story.
