Small Rain/Garth Greenwell

Recommended on this site. I think.

Two books in one: serious medical condition, detailed hospitalization and treatments and also meditation on all of life’s love, poetry, family, and memories.

Lots of stars and awards. Made me uncomfortable because I didn’t know which book I was reading and couldn’t relax into the lengthy back and forth digressions.

Palate cleanser: a bunch of Mike Lawson /Joe DeMarco thrillers. Saving newest title, Untouchable, for dessert.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
