This book cracked me up when I was a teen. Now, not quite as much, but still some funny stuff.

Writer guy goes back to stay at his vacation retreat after his wife dies. Wierd stuff happens. Mostly pretty good book.

Moral: Be nice to people.

Read while in hospital, maybe that's why I didn't get it. First part was good, seemed disconnected from rest of book.

A whole bunch of short stories that I'm thinking I may have read twenty years ago. Some pretty darn good ones in there. King's non-fiction piece about his son's Little League team was great, I don't even like baseball!

Nicely written, of course, and not too long. I don't know if I want to read the rest of the series, though.

One day in Maine a small down goes under a bell jar?

Charming story of a pig. I loved it. Loved the movie, too.

The author tells his story of being a farmer for twenty years, then a teacher, and how he came to write his many books. Most poignant was the anecdote of Charlie the Budgerigar, at which I teared.

One of the Red Glove series. Inspirational stories are not my cuppa, but I must admit I teared up a tiny bit at the end.

Cosima goes back to her hometown of Grace, Arizona, to see how her elderly doctor father is doing. Except it seems to be a very dusty town, if you know what I mean. Very enjoyable.

I was surprised I liked this author. Thoughtful essays on child raising, peace, ecology.
