THE FOSSIL STORE™ fallen star series showcases the fragmented NWA [LL6] meteorite sections transformed within our aluminium frame series. These extraterrestrial stars form our ever-evolving solar system dating 4,400,000,000+ [4.4+ Billion] years, with less than 0.01% of 50,000+ terrestrial impacts occurring each year on the planets that we know of, many of which burn upon entering earth's upper atmosphere or fall into our oceans. Such discoveries were once part of a substantial meteor body orbiting asteroids or asteroid belts in our solar system. In rare events, these stars fall to planetary objects, in this case, earth - entering our stratosphere and impacting the Western Saharan Desert. Exhibiting shallow regmaglypts on the surface, [indentations] created by ablation while falling through the atmosphere, and on occasion consist of fractures caused by terrestrial impact.

Chondrite meteorites contain chondrules, microscopic spheres which are by repute the building blocks of our planetary systems. Science identifies chondrites by the approximated 20% of iron and nickel found within and these mineralised spherical chondrule compounds are often discovered within iron chondrites which offers a greater understanding of the history of our planetary system, enabling science the opportunity to further study a small percentage of extraterrestrial matter that forms parts of our solar system which has evolved over 4,500,000,000 years, as we know it today. Chondrites and achondrites are both types of stony meteorites, but they have different origins and compositions. Both chondrites and achondrites have many subgroups based on their compositions, structures, and the minerals they contain. With this, it is appreciated that Meteorites can provide great insight into the formation and evolution of our solar system.

Chondrites; are made up of iron, magnesium, silicon, and oxygen. The most abundant constituents are chondrules, which are igneous particles that crystallised rapidly. Chondrites can be distinguished from iron meteorites by their low iron and nickel content. and are formed in the asteroid belt about 4.56 billion years ago. They are some of the oldest materials in the solar system. Achondrites; have an evolved composition, including aubrite, eucrite, diogenite, and howardite. Achondrites also do not attract magnets because they do not contain iron-nickel metal and come from differentiated bodies, such as asteroids, Mars, or the Moon.

One of Ann Patchett’s best novels.
Format: Hardcover
“Whistler,” by Ann Patchett, Harper, 320 pages, June 2, 2026. Daphne and Jonathan Fuller are visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art when Jonathan notices an older man following them. They go up to the next floor and the man is still following them. It turns out he is Eddie Triplett, Daphne’s former stepfather, who was married to her mother for a little more than year when Daphne was nine. They haven’t seen each other in almost 45 years, but he recognizes her. It is a chance meeting. Daphne teaches literature at a private school and Jonathan is a retired hospital administrator. Eddie is an editor at Random House, but he wasn’t at the office this day because of a water main break. Daphne visits her sister, Leda, to tell her about the encounter. Flashback to 1980, when Leda was having an appendectomy, Eddie was driving Daphne to the hospital in a snowstorm and they were in an accident. Daphne had to climb out of a car window and walk for help. After that, her mother divorced Eddie. Of course, there’s more to what happened. This is a wonderful story about adults looking back at the choices they’ve made and the choices that others made for them. It is about the small things that impact our lives and memories of childhood. It is about families, love and bravery. This is one of Ann Patchett’s best novels.

Another amazing book from a talented author
Format: Kindle
This is one of my favorite authors so I knew I would enjoy this book and once again, the characters seemed so real like people I knew personally. I very much enjoyed Daphne and Eddie’s relationship and I loved learning about Eddie and Daphne’s mother’s life together and why things played out the way they did. This book truly shows how people can impact us forever regardless of how long they were in our life. There was so much beauty in this book despite the loss and sadness at times. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Revisiting Childhood Story
Format: Hardcover
When you look back on your childhood, are there unresolved feelings? What happens when you look back on your life to reflect? Daphne Fuller is our main character in this new novel by Ann Patchett. Jonathan, her husband, is very observant and can’t help but notice an older man following them on a visit to the Met. Imagine Daphne’s surprise when she discovers that the older man is her former stepfather, who was married to her mother for only a short time when Daphne was nine. Eddie Triplett was a favorite, though, and she adored him. It was also during this time that she experienced a very pivotal point in her young life. Now in her early 50s, Daphne and Eddie get reacquainted and remember how much they enjoyed each other’s company. It’s natural to wonder what her life would have been like had Eddie stayed involved. Daphne finally learns the truth about why Eddie and her mother divorced. Ann Patchett is one of those writers who make storytelling seem effortless, and I enjoy her books and the characters she creates. As Daphne reflects on her life, her husband heads back to his childhood home to clean it out after the death of his mother. Both are grappling with childhood memories and family dynamics. There is a pivotal story about a horse called Whistler, but this is not a ranching story. This book is filled with characters and families who love, make mistakes, reconcile, grapple with loss, and live richer lives. Thank you to Harper for my gifted copy. All opinions are my own.

Classic Ann Patchett: A moving family drama
Format: Hardcover
Ann Patchett’s new book WHISTLER is literary fiction in its purest form. Rather than a plot-driven story that goes from A to B, she writes about everyday moments in a way that makes the reader relate. Her stories are an in-depth study of humanness, of our shared experiences and our limitations. Much of this story is told in flashbacks, revealing a 1980 car accident involving MC Daphne and her stepfather Eddie; and here we learn the significance of a horse named Whistler. Daphne is an English lit teacher at a girls’ school and Eddie is a literary editor, so I loved their discussions. Surrounding these two are a host of unique and interesting characters: Daphne’s husband Jonathan, her birth parents, and younger sister Leda, a clinical psychologist. Although facts are related, the meat of the narrative is what the characters think, feel, fear, and regret. It’s a story about family relationships and the long-lasting effects of events and words for years afterward. It’s about the power of our memories. There’s something about Ann Patchett’s witty and perfectly crafted prose that grips the reader. She has an extraordinary ability to tell a simple story, highlighting human experiences in such a way as to make it an introspective venture.
