4. Every summer I choose an author to re read....

About five years ago, it was Steinbeck and what a great summer of reading it was that year. This year, I am rereading Kurt Vonnegut..so, this summer is going to be a good one too. I do love Steinbeck!

This is my Steinbeck sunmmer , as soon as I get through with Philip K Dick.

12. The Moon Is Down-

I picked this book up at our dump- (we have a put&take that has some really wonderful stuff) late this winter and read it for the first time. I'd never heard of it, it was a quick excellent read. Have you read this?

[JitterbugPerfume]

13. no, but I will!

Put and take sounds like a wonderful idea !Sorry to say , but it would never catch on here in Fundy / Republican heaven

and even if it did the books would be beyond interesting if one REALLY loves Sara Palin.

14. I and the boys

Think these are some real fine books. We'd be reading them here at the Palace if any of us could read more than our names.
