sageandseaOkay, so I've been busy. But one was a hold-over, so I only read half. And two were one-day YA titles.
The Big Picture, A. Whitney Brown, 180 pgs.
This is a hold-over from last year. Dated essays; funny, but A. Whitney is funnier on SNL.
A Little Fear, Patricia Wrightson, 110 pgs.
A wonderful Young Adult book, pitting an old woman and a dog against a land-spirit in Australia. Yay for feisty old women!
Last Things, Jenny Offill, 264 pgs.
The last year of Grace Davitt's childhood, including insanity, science, New Orleans and Burning Man. Disturbing, but good.
Running Out of Time, Margaret Peterson Haddix, 184 pgs.
Another YA title. What would happen if the people in a historical re-enactment village didn't know it was a re-enactment? What are the moral implications of genetic experimentation?
I'm now reading Fahrenheit 451 and Instructions to the Cook: A Zen Master's Lessons in Living a Life that Matters.
I'm down to 60 books on the to-read shelf...I think when I hit 25 I can go to Goodwill or Powell's and get more.
