one of my favorite things

about summer in general,
but particularly this summer...

is that it affords me the chance to read.
a lot.

so here are some recent recommendations for you...
hopefully, you can recommend something back to me?

i've also read a little jodi picoult and zadie smith's "on beauty." it was clearly more entertaining than in touch (i miss in touch.) but not crazy enlightening.

i'm about to start

and one last thing...

this site is cool.

have a nice weekend... i'm off to rome :) :).

and the good news is...

well, i'm traveling europe for the summer. so obviously, this post could get very very long.

but the real good news is: despite the fact that i have posted twice since being in europe, i have been keeping a pretty intensive journal. kind of like anne frank. but not. so even though it seems like i am MIA and so wrapped in this lifestyle that i've forgotten to do what i do... i have not. quite the contrary, in fact.

i can't wait to get back in the swing of things... but for now, it's very important for me to live every moment.

so, until next time... :)
