While She Knits

Summer is over, school has started, Megan is back in Ohio knitting a new pair of socks for her upcoming trip to Boston as a Boston-Globe Horn Book Awards Honoree, and [livejournal.com profile] thesehnsucht 's recent post brings to mind just how long it has been since we had a WSK conversation.

What books have you read recently that really left an impression on you?  What are the ones on your To Be Read or Upcoming New Release lists that you are simply itching to get at?

I had trouble imagining how the same basic set-up could result in a funny book, but it surely did.


I know, I felt the same way! The same basic set up resulting in two very different novels, one tragic and one comedic, takes some serious writing skills. So many authors can only do one or the other.
