Summer Reading

08/13/2009

We are story. All of us. What comes to matter then is the creation of the best possible story we can while we’re here; you, me, us, together.
Richard Wagamese

Ever-vigilant Dales Wares pointed out the other day that we had not posted our summer reading list in ExchangeEveryDay for a few years. So here is a baker's dozen of books that Bonnie and I have enjoyed of late. We encourage you to "Post a Comment" at the end of this message sharing your favorite literary finds. In a week or so we will compile all the suggestions into one summer reading list and post it on our web site.
