This nonfiction exploration of the legacy of the Spanish Civil War is quite good, so far. It's an area of history I'm unfamiliar with. The book opens with the discovery of a mass burial of accused Republican fighters who were killed by Francoist Falangists in the 1930s.<br><br>
What are you folks reading?
Savannah Blues - May Kay Andrews<br><br>
Chick lit. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"> Nothing as serious as you, Bux!<br><br>
I need to track down a couple of books from the boxes in the basement to take on the plane this weekend.
"the NeverEnding Story" I was supposed to return it to the library for my daughter, but I'm reading it instead.<br><br><img alt="" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51M6H03SZ9L._SL500_BO2,204,203,200_PIsitb-dp-500-arrow,TopRight,45,-64_OU01_AA240_SH20_.jpg" style="border:0px solid;">
I am finishing <a href="http://www.small-mart.org/" target="_blank">The Small Mart Revolution</a> and getting ready to start <a href="http://www.natcap.org/sitepages/pid5.php" target="_blank">Natural Capitalism</a>.<br><br><img alt="" src="http://www.bkconnection.com/images/9781576753866L.jpg" style="border:0px solid;">
No Bux, I just meant that you read the neatest stuff. My book is probably fairly mindless! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"><br><br>
I also loved the movie Neverending Story. I've seen it SO many times.
Really, nothing. Which is odd for me, but I guess I'm just in off-mode after the semester. I've got a short story by Saul Bellow and <i>Honest to God</i> by John Robinson as left over assignments that I need to wrap up.

I think you would like it, Bux.<br><br><img alt="" src="http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:kHzD7te08R50OM:https://unp.un.org/bookshop/covers_large/1401908977.jpg" style="border:0px solid;">
Your brain needs a break! I understand.<br><br>
YES! I've read a lot of books on Rwanda but not this one. I also saw her interviewed a few times on the Catholic station, EWTN.<br>
It looks amazing. Let me know what you think of it when you're done!
The Emperor's Children by Claire Messud. I'm about half-way done with it. I'm finding it slightly annoying, but not enough so that I want to put it down.
I'm reading Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan, so far I was able to get into In Defense of Food a little easier than this one, but it's full of interersting stuff nonetheless.
You got a book from QN? I can't even get my bikelock back...<br><br>
Ok..I'm starting light...whatever is on the best seller list by Judy Blume...that's what I bought!<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/banana.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="banana">
Just finished The World Without Us.<br><br>
Now back to my regular scheduled reading.......Ops Centre. Gimme guns, espionage, world politics,and a side order of sex. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">
The Mistress of Spices, by Chitra Divakaruni. Read Queen of Dreams before that, by the same writer. Like 'em both. Some very good writing at times.<br><br>
Chick books <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile">
finishing "my father's house", started "nickel and dimed" will read "Sights unseen" and "a virtuous woman" this weekend. Probably won't finish "nickel and dimed" as I don't like the tone of the author in the first 5 pages.
