Yes, I spend a good portion of my life in front of the tube and screen, but my love is actually stories. To that end, I’ve done pretty well on a summer reading list (thank goodness for Borders buy 2 get 1 free!). I won’t review them all but here’s the list just in case anyone is interested or wants to discuss;-)

The Known World by Edward P. Jones
Wicked by Gregory Macuire
In Cold Blood by Truman Capote
Running With Scissors by Augusten Burroughs (soon to be a movie, I believe)
The Time Traveler’s Wife by Audrey Niffenegger (would be a great movie!)
The World According to Garp by John Irving
The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dunant
Transmission by Hari Kunzru

Yet on my list:

House Made of Dawn by N. Scott Momaday (I saw the restored print of the film at NMAI and have wanted to read the book)
Four Spirits by Sara Jeter Naslun (author of my fav book Ahab’s Wife)

Not too shabby considering all of the movies I was watching for work!
