One Word: Stash



About time for a binge. . . 
though I've already read 
The Girl Who Played With Fire.

I just finished
The History of Love
and have 
The Lacuna in the "next" position.

What are your favorites right now?

Oh dang...I'm not sure I've got one. Reading a book and restringing and playing with either the guitar or the banjo are both sitting to be putup on my to do list as soon as I find something else to put down.

I'm really enjoying The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet by David Mitchell. It's a historical romance set in the late 1700's when the Dutch were trading with the Japanese. I'd really recommend it!

The last thing I really enjoyed was "We are all made of glue".
Do let me know how you get on with Ms Kingsolver's novel. To me, it's just not as good as The Poisonwood.

We tend to glorify the "all men are created equal" phrase without looking at the reality. We can do better. We must.
