I just finished Bone by Bone by Carol O'Connell. Very good. She writes so well.
And now onto the Christmas books. I asked for the Giller Nominees for Christmas and received 2 of them (The Bishop's Man and The Disappeared). I have started The Bishop's Man by Linden MacIntyre since it won and all that. I am only a few pages in, so I will report back later on that. I got a book on Musicals and a book on Screenwriting and the next book in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (written by Eoin Colfer since Douglas Adams has passed on). My Mom gave me the 2nd book by the author of The Time Traveller's Wife (Audrey Niffenegger?) and my brother gave me one of Carrie Fischer's autobiographies. In addition, I got some Indigo Gift Card $$ so I can go buy more books. A good haul.
I was happy, too, that both boys got several books for Christmas. Oliver got the next 2 Wimpy Kid books and he has been reading them. He also got another Encyclopedia Brown book. Ah! Memories of my childhood! It was good to see him reading on the recent trip to Olds. A true 'Strand'.
