book review

Kinfolk by Pearl S. Buck  ~ Loved it!  (Thank you Becky!)

Did I already mention I read Sarah's Key and hated it?  Do not waste your time on it, unless your idea of fun is beating your head against brick walls. 
Next up:  Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier.   I never read it in High School, but when I found out that Alfred Hitchcock made it into a movie, I was convinced.

Also, I gave up (for now) on Atlas Shrugged.... well, y'see, it was on the heels of The Fountainhead.  And, really I should have gone for some light reading, like War and Peace or something.  Go figure.

What are you reading this summer.

I read Rebecca and Jane Eyre during our road trip ... I had forgotten how good they were; there is NOTHING like a classic, and I was particularly drawn to Jane Eyre.

Happy reading!
