Sleepy... few pages read...

I finished The Vagabond King last night. It was hanging on for a few days there because I would only get one or two pages read before I found myself asleep. I have picked up Odalisque, which is the next in the Baroque Cycle (Neal Stephenson). I think I would be going through these faster if it weren't Spring Break. I don't have the 1/2 hour in the car waiting for Oliver after school, so that's a lot of my reading time gone right there.

I forgot to mention I read Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro. My sister lent it to me. It is the same author who wrote Remains of the Day but is nothing like that one (I am assuming based on my recollection of the movie). It was very interesting and sad in a way. I wanted an uprising and that was lacking. I do recommend the read. The concept was brilliant and the writing is really good.
