summertime

Hi guys! Long time, no blog. At least on my end. I've been checking your blogs, and you seem to be doing pretty well :)

Now that the semester's over, I have time to read fun books again. I'm looking forward to joining the next book club meeting. Megs, 'A Dirty Job' is the book, right? I googled, and it sounds fun. A Terry Pratchett/Neil Gaiman sort of book.

I'm almost finished the book I bought the day I passed in my last paper (you know you're a book nerd when you hit the book store before the bar after a long bought of work): Margaret Atwood's "The Blind Assassin." As usual for Atwood, it's compelling writing, but the book also won a bunch of crime writers' awards and so far there's nothing criminal to be seen! Just the usual familial dysfunction and cynicism. I live in hope that a mystery will crop up soon.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to Megs' book, and to existing in the world beyond law school again. I hope you are all doing well & I'll talk to you soon, xox :)

hey Kate, glad you have time to read this one. I am about half way through and have had at least a dozen lol moments in public. My manager came to check on me last week 'cause I was laughing so hard in the lunch room.
Happy reading!

I just noticed that you titled your post 'summertime', Kate....Is it summertime there? It is definetly not summertime in the land of RDF - rain, drizzle and fog...

Welcome back. I have my book picked out for when I get my turn as well girls...when is my turn?

Lis, you are after me, as for when - when everyone has read Dirty Job. I think we had a meeting planned for June 11th, while Lisa H. is home. Look forward to hearing what your choice is.
