Reading List

Before I started doing my news gig which ate up about an hour of my evening time, I used to be a voracious reader. I would plow through a book or two an evening depending on what tickled my fancy at the time. Mostly it was mysteries of the British variety or chick lit back then. For the past 3 years, my literary habits dropped off sharply.

I still dream that I'll make the time in between practicing violin to read full books as opposed to random magazine articles, or just huge swaths of blog posts. I made a list of stuff that sounded good in the emails I get from the Prendergast Library. Here's what I hope to find over the next few months:

• jPod – Douglas Coupland
• Then We Came To The End – Joshua Ferris
• More Than You Know - Beth Gutcheon
• Kings of Infinite Space – James Hynes
• Sleeping with Schubert - Bonnie Marson
• Running In Heels - Anna Maxted
• Dedication - Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus
• The House At Riverton – Kate Morton
• Hotel World - Ali Smith
• The Book of Joe - Jonathan Tropper
• The Geography of Bliss – Eric Weiner
