Okay, I did not go out and buy this book but when it came to me via "the universe" I did decide I had to take a look.

Last night a took a look at "Fifty Shades of Grey." I had to laugh because I found myself imagining "Fifty Shades of Grey...son."

It would appear that I do not have a lot of time for reading, but I find I have a skosh of time to read on my commute by train or when I finally fall into bed, each night.

On a recent visit to a library, I went kind of crazy and checked out a bunch of books by author, Erik Larson: Isaac's Storm (which I am reading right now), Lethal Passage: The Story of a Gun, In the Garden of Beasts (which will keep me busy for a few weeks).

In addition, I checked out S/he by Minnie Bruce Pratt.

I also stopped by Powells Book store and used my gift card:
I bought Mary Oliver's newest book of poetry... A Thousand Mornings.

I was just thinking about that book yesterday! Been years since I've read it.

I'm re-reading Small Changes by Marge Piercy.

Started this book a few days ago, Just found out it is nominated for the national book award this year.

puddin' · 11-01-2012, 05:20 PM

some short stories by natalie nessus

lyric · 11-01-2012, 05:28 PM

Just finished this book. At 3.99 for the kindle edition, it was a good buy for me, and Molly Ringwald, as an author, was a pleasant surprise.

[ame="http://www.amazon.com/When-It-Happens-You-ebook/dp/B007BCF6EU/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1351811489&sr=1-1&keywords=molly+ringwald+when+it+happens+to+you "]

[/ame]

I wasn't sure what to expect from a former brat packer who long ago taught me the notion of applying lipstick from my cleavage, but this was a neat little piece that I read in just two nights and was altogether poignant, heartbreaking, and familiar. Ringwald presents the reader with a series of short stories, all linked together with a 'seven degrees of separation' type of flavor, centered around the theme of betrayal and heartache and how we push through to persevere in both. When It Happens To You made me feel something in the pit of my stomach, and I love nothing more than a book that not only makes me feel but lingers for days after.
