Every now and again I buy something that is not a shirt, pair of shoes or a handbag and when I'm looking for a non-fashion shopping fix I usually head to Chapters! My taste in literature is in all honesty, not very highbrow - Sookie Stackhouse and Stephanie Plum have a good amount of space on my bookshelf. However, in this case, I heard Ann Patchett's State of Wonder reviewed on NPR and was so intrigued, I bought it, read it in a couple of days and thoroughly loved it! The story and characters are beyond intriguing...and the South American rainforest setting gave me an almost Southern Gothic vibe with the connections and intricacies of "place".
Also, the book is rather beautiful - get it now ;)
I don't understand any of that last sentence. You are too smart for me. :P
