I suppose it would be good to talk a bit about what I've been reading lately. It might help me focus on the upcoming task.
The last book I finished was The Monkeywrench Gang by Edward Abbey. During our vacation in the desert of Utah, everyone we met told me I should read it. One of my brother's friends even named her dog after one of the main characters (Hayduke). Seeing as how I already owned the book because I was supposed to read it for a class in college several years ago and never did, I figured now was the time. It was a good read and our trip to the West really helped localize the setting and make it seem more real.
Before that, I read The Testament. That was my first John Grisham novel. That was a good read as well, though the main character was really depressing and the storyline was kind of bizarre. The quality of the narrative seemed to keep it grounded though; I had no trouble getting through it.
I'm not reading anything at the moment...nothing good on hand and hardly any time.. I'm always open to suggestions though.
