I used to keep up with this religiously but I've not been. Here, since I am all headachy and missing crafty as a result, I shall update you.

1. The Girl Who Gave Birth To Rabbits by Clifford A Pickover
A parable about the evanescent nature of youth. Kidding, it's non-fiction about Mary Toft, a woman who allegedly gave birth to rabbits (debunked). What drives one to shove dead animal parts in one's coot? Or maybe I should ask it this way: How much money would it take for you to agree to shove dead animal parts up your coot? Because, if I understand correctly, that's the next big reality program!

2. The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion
Y'know, this is going to sound so trite, but I really do wish I had a bond with someone the Didion did with her husband. I'll stop right there.

3. Labyrinth by Kate Mosse
This book was over 500 pages long. Somewhere in the 400s I stopped and thought, "What the bloody hell is going on here?" I knew it had something to do with the grail and that sort of thing, but I really didn't know much beyond that. And, aroud that point, I guess Mosse got tired of writing out one part of the story so she sped things up by having a narrator tell our protagonist the remainder. But still, it was light reading, fast reading. Sometimes you want to watch a NOVA special on String Theory, sometimes you just want to watch "My Super Sweet 16."
