I have had a good week away and got through several books I had been wanting to read. First I read The Arrangement by Suzanne Forster, a paperback about a young woman with amnesia, then I read Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali a biography by a young woman who was born in Somali, then because of civil war grew up in Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, and Kenya. She was born a Muslim and this is her tale about her life through her leaving her family and becoming a citizen in Holland. Very, very interesting! I then read 7 Things You Better Have Nailed Down Before All Hell Breaks Loose by Robert D. Wolgemuth. I am now reading The Morcai Battlion by Diana Palmer a sci-fi that is really fun. Not as many books as I usually read on vacation but I got a few of those, “I have got to read this” out of my way.

Mrs. Wasson is reading a new book we have entitled Paint the Wind, a horse book that she is enjoying. Mrs. Murray is reading The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand, this is a book I read in High School and at the time thought it was the best book ever written, we will be purchasing a copy. I finished The Road by Cormac McCarthy, a very dark, depressing novel the reviews talk about hope at the end of the story but it was not a big enough punch to counter balance the rest of the novel for me. I am reading The Missing Manatee by Cynthia DeFelice, this will be my 13th WAW (if I pass the test!!) and I will be on that bus!

Mrs. Murray is reading The Penderwicks, by Jeanne Birdsall, which is one of this year’s WAW books. She says it reminds her of Little Women. I am reading The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame.

How was everyone’s Christmas? I am reading the novel Gideon the Cutpurse by Linda Buckley-Archer. I purchased this and it is not in the library yet but so far it is interesting, 2 kids somehow find themselves in 1763 and are trying, with the help of Gideon, to find out how they were sent back in time and to find Tar Man who has taken off with a machine that Gideon says appeared at the same time the children did.

I finished Each Little Bird That Sings and it was similiar to the movie My Girl. Sad but with a good ending.
