Just saw that it has been almost a month since I posted to this. Between work and the homework from the Design Class as CCS I have had no time.
But over the 4th of July weekend I tried to relax and do some reading and weaving.
On the Friday I finished the book "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao" by Junot Diaz. I had given it to Frank for Christmas and he enjoyed it. It had won the Pulitzer Prize and I did like it - but I am sure he enjoyed it more understanding the Spanish that was heavily sprinkled about.
On Saturday I started "White Oleander" by Janet Fitch. I went on a reading marathon and finished it on Monday. Compelling writing though I felt it could have used a few less different foster home horror stories as she moved from one to another. A good story though about how her mother, who was in prison, still has such a strong hold on her and who she is.
