CURRENTLY READING: Well, I finished Into the Volcano... and then it took me just over 15 minutes to read The Storm in the Barn. Thus, I am about to venture into Food Rules. I am motoring through my pile faster than I thought.
THOUGHTS?: I love the expressive storytelling in The Storm in the Barn. The images also had a striking sense of movement that gave the book a cinematic quality. Absolutely loverly.
SNACKS AND STUFF: We have ordered dinner. I should arrive in Hour 14.
COMPANION UPDATE: The Roomie has finished the Clive Clusser, and has started reading Bunnicula. Somehow, we both missed that one during our childhood.
ANYTHING ELSE?: The Comcast, excuse me Xfinity, "Light Classical" station is perfect read-a-thon music. Lively enough to keep you awake, but subtle enough to stay in the background.
