December, 2011: I'm going to revisit my 2006 decision not to finish this book. I think it was probably hasty, I was probably being a prig, and I'm hoping that to the extent I was a foolish child then, I'm not one now.

I saw that one of my friends was reading the works of Jane Austen and it sounded kind of fun. Anyone else is welcome to join in. It is hard to argue with Jane Austen on a blustery day.

Jess, my 8-year old little girl, gave it 3 stars. Comments while reading: 1. "I want to read this book because all the kids in my class have read it." 2. "That's the CHEESE! Don't touch it! Why? Because if you touch it you'll have the 'cheese touch'." 3. "What is the 'cheese touch'? Just read the book!" 4. "He had to tie his fingers together so he won't get the cheese touch. And he got a D in handwriting." 5. "Is it true that if your hand is bigger than your face you have low intelligence?" 6. "What is a dork? Okay. Rawley is so dorky!" 7. "Rodrick is the brother. He's like, a teenager --- that's why he leaves his dirty underwear everywhere." 8. "What's a soprano? Oh, like that Carmen lady?" 9. "I want to buy the real book because I want to be able to write and draw on it. My friends all do it."
i don't even remember, but i thought this was the best book ever when i was a sophomore in college...

With the best books, you pick them up, and you know after a few sentences, this is going to be a good one. Laura Elliott's YA book Winnemucca is pure poetry. Adults will devour this book as much as any younger readers. I found myself slowing down to breathe in the beauty of the words, sometimes reading aloud, to better try and catch the rhythms of the beautiful and unique back-country voice of this narrator, Virginia Mae Nolyn: "When the convict slipped back into the circular crowd, I grabbed a handful of San Joaquin soil and swirled the fingers of my free hand in the little mound of dirt in my palm. I touched my soil-stained fingers to my heart and became a Child of the Road." The story is not complicated, but Virginia Mae's stubborn mind sure is. Running away from her own impending marriage, she has found out that the thing she hates the most is to be managed. She is learning to listen to the impulses that "bubble up inside" and continually reminds herself, especially when the going gets tough, "One foot in front of the other." Her birth-mother is in Winnemucca, so Ginny is not just running away from something. She is on a quest to find her mother and connect, for the first time. To claim the things that have been denied her. She takes us with her on her harrowing, sometimes dangerous, always breathtaking road-trip, allowing the reader to eavesdrop on every moment of the gorgeously conflicted consciousness of a seventeen-year-old rebel. There is irony in the fact that the largest employer in her hometown is a federal prison, and half the town population lives within its walls. At one point, Ginny stands just outside the prison fence, looking in: "A convict paused inside the chain-link with his hands on his hips. I let go of the prison sign, dropped to my feet and stood ramrod straight, as different from the wimpy oats as possible. We stared at each other. Him in his prison. Me in mine. We both knew what kept us walking in circles." The writing is self-assured, powerful, and poetic. Her journey to Winnemucca is Ginny's road to self-discovery, out of her own personal prison of ignorance and self-delusion. From her website I saw that Laura Elliot has another book coming out in a few months. I predict a wide following for this author if the next book is anywhere near as good as Winnemucca. Winnemucca is a newborn classic.

Probably one of my favorite of the series. Many Waters was L'Engle taking a rather different approach to telling the story of the Murrys, and even did it in the perspective of Sandy and Dennys as opposed to Meg and Charles Wallace. I had been looking forward to the book because it would involve the twins much more than the books usually did. The twins weren't the only differences in the book, however. Even with the two instances of a tesseracting occurrence, the traveling didn't get very far. For once the story occurred in the same time period, the same mass of land, only the perspectives switching from one twin to the next, and then to Yalith, another important character. Yet so much happened in the story, and I was only sorry that the twins couldn't exactly stay til the very end to see how it goes. It was an interesting version of the telling of Noah and the flood. Much more interesting that the Murry twins were learning their lessons and doing their deeds, heh.

Probably one of my favorite books by Anne Rice, Blackwood Farm brings together her Mayfair Witch series and the Vampire Chronicles. For someone who has read her previous works, its refreshing to have the two groups meet - linked of course, by the ever-watching Talmasca. For new readers, it could inspire you to read one series, or the other, or even both.

A delightful procedural, complete with internal politics between local police and state police, crime families and less than perfectly honest judges and district attorneys, all of them of course outflanked by wiley Inspettore Montalbano. And a generous portion of sarcastic social criticism. Oh yes, food too, I gained 5 pounds just reading this.
