“I just finished the ‘His Dark Materials Trilogy,’ by Philip Pullman. Slightly overrated, but very imaginative and entertaining.”
“I’m reading ‘Still Life With Woodpecker,’ by Tom Robbins. It’s about a royal family who is forced to flee to America, where their daughter encounters an unusual terrorist.”
“I just read ‘Franny and Zooey,’ by J.D. Salinger. It’s about these two siblings who write letters to each other while the sister attends school and the brother is away from home.”
“‘This House of Sky,’ by Ivan Doig. It’s kind of an autobiography about the author’s childhood experiences in Montana. It’s a great book.”
“I just read ‘Snow Flower and the Secret Fan,’ by Lisa See. It’s about two girls growing up in China in the 1500s and the struggles they encounter.”
