Our book club is reading The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls this month. It has what may be the best first line of the year: "I was sitting in a taxi, wondering if I had overdressed for the party, when I looked out the window and saw my Mom rooting through the dumpster."
The book is about a very dysfunctional family and brings to mind some relatives in my past. I am really liking it.
In class yesterday, a member recommended Thomas Friedman's The Earth is Flat. Anyone out there read it?
Reading continues to be my most favorite thing to do when I am not playing with the kids. My wish list at Amazon is always full.
