Book time.
Note - I discovered so many picture books during the last three months that I'm going to do a separate post devoted to them.
Note (Part II) - I wrote the same thing last time I did a book post. Oops.
Note (Part III) - here's a link to the last book post, here's the December / January / February / March one, and here's all the rest. You can always browse through everything filed under the "books" tag here.

And some of the books I enjoyed reading during the last few months...
The Collected Stories of Richard Yates (At this point I've read almost everything Richard Yates has ever written and this saddens me [both because I won't have any more books of his to read... and because so many of his stories/books are highly depressing]) / The House in Paris by Elizabeth Bowen / True Grit by Charles Portis (I loved this so much - I wish that I had read it when I was Mattie's age) / Maisie Dobbs by Jacqueline Winspear (as if I needed to start another mystery series.... oh well)
Top of the Rock: The Rise and Fall of Must See TV by Warren Littlefield (I <3 Frasier 4ever) / My Dirty Dumb Eyes by Lisa Hanawalt / In Character: Actors Acting / Explainers: The Complete Village Voice Strips (1956-1966) by Jules Feiffer
