It’s sunny and chilly outside this morning, reminding us that it’s still winter, even though this past week has felt more like late-spring. It’s perfect weather for drinking a hot cup of chai, then heading out for a brisk walk, which is exactly my plan for the day. I don’t have a book to tell you about today, as I’ve been reading contenders for Silver Birch nomination, so this is not really a "post", more like notes on my reading plan for the next few days, as I'm trying to get back in the habit of posting on Sunday mornings.
After a week of power-reading juvenile fiction, I decided to read something just for me, an adult book that will (hopefully!!) immediately suck me in. I opened a few books from the library but they didn’t work out, then I pulled a few books off my shelf to try and found one that seems to be perfect. I have very high hopes for All Over Creation by Canadian author Ruth Ozeki. I’ve read and really, really enjoyed A Tale for the Time Being, but not really enjoyed The Book of Form and Emptiness, both later books by this author, but I think this earlier one will be engaging enough to bridge the gap between now and the next time I start on other juvenile novels. I’ll tell you more about this next week.
That’s all for today. Enjoy the sunny day, but stay warm!
Bye for now... Julie
