Sometimes People Read...

Cockeyed by Ryan Knighton - humourous, interesting, insightful, sometimes goes on and on a bit about the blind perspective, a bit like a blog, small degrees of skimming resulted. I read half of it in one sitting, loved it overall and can't wait for more from this author- more than his memoir! I enjoy his style of writing, and would love to read a work of fiction by him.

The Road of Bones by Anne Fine (J Fic)-gripping, powerful, fable-like in nature, however the suspenseful, ending may leave a child empty.

Ten Days in the Hills by Jane Smiley - smutty (rated R for a reason!) but natters on like the Gilmour Girls fixated on CNN's coverage of the so-called "War on Terror"...sometimes I felt like my life was slipping away, wasted listening to an endless conversation.

Beijing Bicycle - DVD - lovely and tragic, interesting, didn't mean towatch it all in one night and stayed up waaaay too late for a week night

There You Are: A Novel by Joanne Taylor (J Fic)- east coast days of old,lovely and fascinating, sibling rivalry disolves a bit to easily, rifewith tragedy that ends happily, a satisfying top pick for family readaloud.

My Kind of Place: Travel Stories from a Woman Who's Been Everywhere by Susan Orlean -If you like travel writing with a journalistic slant, she pulls a collection of magazine articles of all descriptions together under this title. I have only skimmed a few enjoyable articles, some didn't interest me, and came across as a bit insipid or dated, but this works as light pre-bed reading.

My completed reading list.

A patron just said,"It looks great up here." Isn't that lovely, good displays do make a difference. Our hard work does pay off. Occasionally people do read the boards, or look at the little creatures and books on display.
