For a comfort read going back to childhood, Little Women, for a less comforting but comfortable and life affirming read, The Stand. I havent read anything in a very long time that has stuck. Meh.

In fact, my first book like this, that I read the shit out of, was Harriet the Spy. I first read it in grade 3 and I have since read it many, many times.

My other book like this is Handling Sin by Michael Malone. I bought it on a whim, on a book buying frenzy and it took me more than 6 months to pick it up off my shelf and actually read it. And it’s one of the best books ever, ever, ever. I will blog about it one day.

I have wondered before at how many people really become intimate with a book and just how odd that is, sharing realities based on imagination. Far more personal than a favorite movie.
Word to your Mother.

I wish he’d figure out new characters and imagery.

Have you read Until I Find You? I bought it when it came out in hardcover but have yet to even read a page.

I’ve cried every time I’ve read it.
I got my hat! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I will take a picture of me in it when I am not feeling so bloated.
