  24. Let me know what you think of Everything You Want, by Barbara Shoup. I read the ARC of it several months ago, so I'd love to compare notes (if I remember enough of it!).

    ReplyDelete
  25. Oh, also, I just noticed that you got The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian. I love Sherman Alexie; he's one of my favorites. You should check out The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fisfight in Heaven, if you haven't already.
