books

I need to stop consuming entire books in a day, even if it does put me at fifty rather early in the year. I will run out of my carefully hoarded stack. Perhaps I should read some non-fiction, since it's been mostly fiction all year long. (I have Havel's book sitting on a shelf, waiting patiently for me to take it to the Castle and back.) Yesterday I devoured The Seal Wife and today it was Worst Fears. Oddly, both books I bought for a dollar at Half Price and both are first editions.

Perhaps I should read The Red Tree again, since the weather might be imperceptibly shading towards autumn here. I could live with a month or so of gray, honestly. I cook more. Like the chocolate almond chip cookies. More quiche for dinner to use up the duck eggs.

Are any of these books must-reads? I'm always looking for recommendations. Thanks!

I made Quiche Lorraine this weekend. It was yummy.

I feel like a slacker in the reading department. I'm barely pushing 20 books for the year. I blame the lack of decent new fantasy authors. I still can't really enjoy reading non-fiction.

You should come back here if you're looking for cool gray weather. It's been in the 40s every morning for the last week and fall gloom.

To the Castle and Back is, for me, a great example of Czech writing at its finest; it's really a wonderful read.

Have you read any of MK Fisher's books? (M.F.K.Fisher)

You might enjoy some of them, especially the cooking ones :)
