I am on vacation at the wonderful Hood Canal and I am having a "busman's vacation'" reading as many books as I can for the One City, One Story selection committee.
I read half of Hummingbird's daughter and then I decided it seemed too dense for a selection that will include junior high and high school students... It may have been the fact that it was stormy outside and there were 15 family members of all ages in a little house. Still, it just didn't seem right for this project...
I started People of the Book and just finished it this morning. What a wonderful story filled with adventure and historical perspectives. I recommend it to all book lovers--and you know who you are!
I love this area of Washington state where we are on the water in my in-laws summer home... Jeff's family all around, all ages, and interests...waterskiing, crabbing, fishing, sewing, garage sales, thrift store shopping, library visits, and a great rotation of cooks!
We are here one more week!
