Wickedly Rolling Along...

Too busy to race through books, I am now reading Son of a Witch, the second of the Wicked Series by Gregory Maguire. I like Wicked for the most part. Some of it went off on these political tangents and it lost focus in the latter third, but I liked it. I am hoping Son of a Witch gains more push soon.

Plays and more plays...

I read Major Barbara, Cloud Nine and Scorched. These are 3 of my plays for Drama 103. I also started reading Wicked by Gregory Maguire. It has been sitting next to my bed for awhile and I finally picked it up and started. Not bad so far. Tonight I will go and see Scorched at the Citadel. The script was really good so I am hopeful.

Homework Reading...

I am halfway through Major Barbara (GBS) as required for my Drama 103 Class which starts this Tuesday. I am not sure what we need to read first, but I started with this one because it was listed first on the reading list. I still need to find one of the texts and hopefully it will be in at the bookstore this week or next. Hopefully that won't be the first one.

Christmas Books

Got Doors Open for Christmas and I am almost done that now. It is very Ian Rankin, not Rebus, but good. He can write and I appreciate that. I got a few others plus a gift certificate so I shall make my way to Chapters/Coles in good time. I also received my online order of 3 of my Drama books for this term. I want to read the plays ahead of time to be prepared for any discussion. I learned to do this (reading ahead) in my fourth year of university and it really helped. With the way my life is a re-read is easier to fit in than a first read.
