I read Follow the River in high school and it was excellent. I second the recommendation. Adina, I started reading Professor and the Madman right before we moved here the first time and it was very good but I got sidetracked by the move and never finished it. We have it around here somewhere, unless that's the one Barb has/had. I just started Reading Lolita in Tehran. I'll have to let you all know.

Marnie, I'm glad you like your new job. I hope the apt. works out well. Buffy, are you not going to be up for the wedding? Did I miss that somewhere? I hope that's not the case, but I understand if it is. Barb, I have to agree with Buffy about the whole healthy lifestyle thing. I greatly admire you for making such healthy changes.

Okay, I just posted last night so I am done but I couldn't miss out on a book discussion. Buffy, I also look forward to the next Harry Potter book. I have a feeling I won't be doing too much reading during the next two months. We'll see.
