I'm probably the last person in my circle of friends to read The Kite Runner, but I'm about halfway through it now. So sad and so beautiful. Someone lent me The Long Emergency, but I haven't been able to face it yet. On a recent road trip, I listened to Stormy Weather, a Carl Hiassen novel, which, like most of his fiction, is a complex, rousing chase through the wilds of south Florida, with an environmentalist message cleverly hidden in the highly entertaining plot.
Meanwhile I'm reading multiple textbooks for fall classes--not nearly as beautiful though some are pretty sad.:rolleyes:

Ok I have a few i am trying to get to and one that I am finishing. The one I am trying to finish is called The Snow Leopard. It is a true story about a man who goes through a walking journey of Nepal with a friend who is seeking the snow leopard amongst other stuff. It is very interesting and it goes very deep into he's soul of thinking. He had lost he's wife the year before to cancer.
And let's Water for elephants and Animal, vegatable , miricle. The later is about a family who decides to eat nothing but locally grown and made food for a year. never going to the market. I look forward to both.
