Hello my faithful readers - sorry I've been absent for a while. Life got a little too wild for blogging, and even for reading much. In a couple of days I'm off for a much-needed vacation, and I'm hoping to plow through dozens of books in a week. Well, maybe not dozens, but a whole bunch, anyway. I'm not taking library books for fear of them ending up in the Hudson River, like Captain Sullenberg's. For the plane trip I'm carrying a trilogy of books by David Lodge, highly recommended by my friend Rosalind. In the suitcase are Sex With Kings (Eleanor Herman), Case Histories (Kate Atkinson), Little Bee (Chris Cleave), and more.I promise to let you know what I think about them, and how many I got read.
At the moment I'm enjoying You Say Tomato, I Say Shut Up by Annabelle Gurwitch and Jeff Kahn. This is a terrifically funny he said/she said book about their relationship; both are very clever actor/writers and are guaranteed to make you laugh out loud. Which is an essential life tool, in my book.
