Like a tropical storm,
I, too, may one day become "better organized."

SHE TURNED TO LITERATURE

Read Bright young things by Scarlett Thomas last week. It wasn't especially good, but had to get into reading mode again. Currently reading The women's room by Marilyn French. Finally! It's so good. Will put up quotes soon, when I'm not so busy and stressed out all the time.

Other book-related event: Going to see Lydia Davis at Kultuhuset here in Stockholm tomorrow. Am excited.

Before I went to Eastern Europe, I read Testimony by Anita Shreve. Really wasn't good. Wasn't bad either, just completely blah. Read Before I go to sleep by S.J. Watson and Back roads by Tawni O'Dell while away. The last one was wonderful.
