After a bit of a drought in July, when I was otherwise occupied, I found my way back to the library in August. Read For such a small book The Mother exerts a powerful pull. It covers the London trial of a 16-year-old accused of killing a 15-year-old. Both boys ... Read More...
July Reading Wrap-Up
Based on the calendar I know it was summer, but the only way I believed it was hearing from friends and family how they were melting away in intense heat. Seattle hovered in the 60s or lower for most of the month. I'm not complaining except it is nice to actually see a pedicure when you've gotten one and when it stays chilly I wear socks.

It’s Monday, June 13th: What are You Reading?

It might also be a good metaphor for my reading. Somehow, I got a little crazy with the number of books I have to read in June and now I’m blowing hot and cold on almost every one. So, today this is not only ‘Monday ... Read More...
