Can I say that I find it completely unfathomable, that you, Sherrilee Barron, have not yet read House on Mango Street? Love you!:)

I just finished reading A Ship Made of Paper by Scott Spencer. It's written so well that the situations the characters were in made me feel uncomfortable. I couldn't read it all in one sitting. I'd have to put it down and leave it for a few days. But I'm glad that I read it. In some weird way, it made me love my husband more.

It's refreshing to hear of a book that I haven't heard of. I think I'll look it up the next time I'm at work.

Currently I'm reading Nick Hornby's new book, A Long Way Down. Entertaining read, and what a great hook.

Also, Kite Runner affected me so much that I haven't been able to finish it. It's been...months?

When will you be online? Better yet, in town? I may be *gasp* moving.
