Rain, rain go away...

It's been raining almost non-stop since Sunday evening, and I am so tired of it. It feels like my brain is waterlogged it's been raining so much. So today's post isn't going to be particularly scintillating. I figured I'd keep you up-to-date on what I've been reading all summer...
So here it is--Kim's Summer 2008 Reading List (in no particular order):

• The Witches by Roald Dahl (read this with a ten-year old I was teaching)
• Special Topics in Calamity Physics by Marisha Pessl (torn, don't know if I really liked this book)
• Chasing Harry Winston by Lauren Weisberger (purely escapist reading that was sometimes fun, sometimes annoying)
• The Anonymous Venetian by Donna Leon (I love all of her books)
• Comfort Food by Kate Jacobs (lots of fun to read but you'll be very, very hungry...)
• How to Walk in High Heels by Camilla Morton (fun book on everything we chicas need to know)
• The Mission Song by John le Carre (fantastic, disturbing, highly recommended)
• Angels Fall by Nora Roberts (a little romantic suspense to get me through this rainy period in Stockholm)

I've probably read more books but I can't remember. I know I read two books while we were in Italy but I've forgotten what they were called and I left them at the hotel once I finished reading them.

Hmm...not much today. Well, maybe I'll feel more creative next time. But while I am writing, I can tell you I'll be in Italy again in late September for the Women's Fiction Festival. I'm really looking forward to it. Some of the chicas in my writers' group went to it last year and found it insightful. Now I'm sold--I'm going on September 24.
