Tim Gunn's Fashion Bible: The Fascinating History of Everything in Your Closet (by Tim Gunn, of course)
I'm enjoying it more than I thought I would. It's written just as Tim would speak it, so I keep hearing his voice in his head while I'm reading. And the history lessons are fun too!

The Tie That Binds by Kent Haruf
I typically read only non fiction and I realize by doing so I'm missing out on a lot...so I'm attempting to alternate fiction and non fiction. The synopsis is kindof muddled. An older woman lies dying in a hospital bed under police guard. She is accused of murder. The story is told in the voice of her longtime neighbor. We shall see...

I have been reading more and more about the growing disparity between populations of those living in poverty and the those who seemingly are wealthy.
It is truly sad, to me, that in this day and age, women and children are yet to be treasured and valued members of society (here or abroad). I hope to come across encouraging news, soon.

Sigh...
I am reading two books...BOTH fiction. This came about because I left my book at home and had one in my car for some reason...so I started reading the car book on my breaks at work...so I am reading: Annie Freeman's Fabulous Traveling Funeral by Kris Radish and Love in the time of Cholera...by I don't know who cuz it's my car book and it's in my car.... I'm equal parts into each book just about, since I've just started them both. I like the energy of the house book. I think I will make some headway on that one today

I recently finished Ancillary Sword, after loving Ancillary Justice, by Ann Leckie. In this series, the culture the main character is part of doesn't recognize gender and uses female pronouns for everybody. And the author won't tell in interviews which gender the characters are. She says the characters and relationships are like rorshach tests. Sure enough, I thought the main love relationship in the first book was butch-femme. There are other complicated themes in the book too - about artificial intelligence, what makes a person and colonization.

If anyone is into supernatural books try Stephen Leather his Jack Nightingale books are really good, but you have to read them in order he has written five up to now. A bloody good read.

Gilead.
by .... Marilynne Robinson. Robinson's book won the 2005 Pulitzer prize for fiction and im only 21 pages into the story, but it's about a black preacher man who writes his own narrative as a telling of his life and times to his son ( or maybe his grandson). But when he talks about relatives in his family or the life and times of his own world, it has kindled a smile deep in my heart. I've even quietly burst out in laughter. And ive even become teary....the story is incredibly touching. I highly recommend this book. I may even go buy my own copy. But someone loaned it to me. ★★★★★★★★★★★ (Awesomeness rating)
