• What are you currently reading?
Our current bed-time book (with my young son) is “Odd and the Frost Giants” by Neil Gaiman. He is such a great author! I am also reading “The Most They Ever Had” by Rick Bragg for our book club.
• What did you recently finish reading?
Not to be repetitive (I just finished “The Death of Sweet Mister”) since I’m not a super fast reader, I’ll list “The Year of the Flood” by Margaret Atwood as my almost-finished book! I’m on the last three CDs of twelve.
• What do you think you’ll read next?
Even though I know it’s seriously depressing, I’m going to read “Into the Wild” next. Funny … I couldn’t even watch the movie 127 Hours because of the similar nature of the two stories, and I’m going to make myself read about Christopher John McCandless’ untimely demise. I borrowed it from a friend and have to give it back sometime soon.

I really enjoyed the film version of Into the Wild even though it is sad! And I enjoyed 127 hours too! Here’s my list 🙂 http://lostinthought-becca.blogspot.com/2012/03/www-wednesday-4.html

The Death of Sweet Mister looks very compelling. What did you think about it?
I liked it because I love Daniel Woodrell’s writing, but the story itself is pretty hard to stomach. Being desensitized as a reader might help!
I can’t claim to be desensitized… I’ll consider this one when I’m in the right mood.
The Bragg book sounds great!
Bragg is a great storyteller, and I’m enjoying his book. The subject matter can be quite depressing, but it offers many examples of the past struggles of some southerners. I think we act like a bunch of babies now compared to their work loads!
some great books there! will have to check some of them out!
