Veronica Roth: Divergent
2/14: Started.
Beth Revis: A Million Suns
2/14: On hold (but really enjoying it so far!).
2/8: Started. I loved Across the Universe and have been very excited to start the second book in the series!
Lisa T. Bergren: Waterfall: A Novel (River of Time Series)
2/7: Finsihed. A very good little time-travel romance. I almost set it aside, because it was so obviously a romance and I really don't like those - at least not the traditional ones where the guy just falls in love with the girl immediately and simply canNOT live without her; I read the heck out of that genre back in the 90s - but this had some pretty interesting characters and situations and I'm actually contemplating reading the other two books in the trilogy just to see what happens to the sisters!
1/31: Started. Here's yet another book for the Off The Shelf challenge this year. I might actually accomplish this one! (***)
Ludmilla Petrushevskaya: There Once Lived a Woman Who Tried to Kill Her Neighbor's Baby: Scary Fairy Tales
1/30: Finished. It's been a while since I've read a collection of short stories, so I was a little apprehensive about reading this book. However, once I got into the stories, I loved every minute of it. The stories are strange and creepy and weird and wonderful! Some of them I got from the beginning, and others really surprised me. This writer has a great imagination!
1/25: Started. This is another one for the Off the Shelf Challenge. (***)
Larry Watson: Montana 1948: A Novel
1/24: Finished. Wow, what a quick read, but so good, too. One of those brief moment of time stories, a short summer in the life of one family. Kinda like Dandelion Wine, but while this guy's a good writer, but he's no Ray Bradberry.
1/23: Started. An actual book this time, not on my nook! (Amazing how much lighter my purse is now!) (***)

Bus Route Fail

Our bus driver is either insane or senile. He totally missed the turn into Cal Poly and has had to go in the back way. This will make us all late for work this morning. Gah! AND he keeps running over the curbs! Can we please get a decent driver on this route?
