Currently Reading? Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld and No One Belongs Here More Than You by Miranda July
Alea, great pick for your favorite book. It's in my top five as well. And, coincidentally, we're both currently reading No One Belongs Here More Than Me. I loved Miranda July's film, and she seems completely captivating as a person, so I had to pick up her short stories.
