So far this summer I've read...<BR/>Vanishing Acts by Jodi Picoult<BR/>The Dying Animal by ?? Roth<BR/>and another one that I can't even remember (and I'm too lazy to run upstairs to look in my suitcase lol!) I bought 3 more but I'm not sure I'll be able to get through them before school starts. I'm sad I didn't get to attend a "luncheon"...maybe next summer!cpmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517283069217237687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3183590889110225288.post-36439212432057955242008-08-08T18:18:00.000-03:002008-08-08T18:18:00.000-03:00I'll second the Life of Pi, and add the Beekeeper'...I'll second the Life of Pi, and add the Beekeeper's Apprentice by Laurie King - Natsumi gave it to me and since then I've probably read it five times and shared it with others many more!
