Ah, I literally just put down Blessings by Anna Quindlen. Such a beautifully, touching book. The ending is a bit sad, but all the same, it’s wonderful!

I suppose next I shall begin to tackle The Fountainhead.

I’m getting there. I’m struggling with finding some of them (my local library is kind of small), but I’ll figure something out…even if it means a trip to the bookstore. My most recent read was Lord of the Flies...which was incredibly disturbing, but a good book nonetheless.

I’m getting there, slowly but surely. =] I just finished Gone with the Wind and next up will be whichever book on my list that the library has available. I’m looking for Middlemarch by George Eliot. If they don’t have it in (they didn’t last time), it’ll probably be Lord of the Flies by William Golding.
