Children's: Judy Moody
Classics: La Cousine Bette. This book is the reason I did not do as well as I would have liked in my class on the French novel. It made me want to beat my head against the wall.
Non-Fiction: The Snow Leopard. Funny -- I was just thinking about this book yesterday for the first time in ages. I read it in high school and loved it, but no loner remember it very well.
Book Club: I should know this. I read a lot of Michener at one time, but I can only think of The Source, Hawaii and Tales of the South Pacific at the moment.
Authors: Marlowe
Book Bag: ?
All I have is Marlowe.
All I got this week was Children's -- Judy Moody; and Authors -- Christopher Marlowe. I still haven't read any Balzac.
Marlowe... that's it.
Book Club: Poland and Mexico
Book Club: My friends from the Lone Star state would say Texas.
Children's: Judy Moody
Classics: Cousin Bette
Non-Fiction: The Snow Leopard
Book Club: Mexico and Poland
Authors: Christopher Marlowe
Book Bag: Susan Vreeland
We got all but Vreeland this week, which evidently does not mean we want to read all of these. (Although I just got tickets for a Marlowe play!)
The Snow Leopard and Christopher Marlowe. A pleasing combination.
