| | What I'm reading *
I've always read. While growing up, reading was a refuge when I found life too unpleasant or stressful. Consequently I've bought a lot of books over time as well.
Now that I'm no longer in the rich corporate phase of my life I've rediscovered the library. Dayton's library may be maligned by some but is still a great resource. One type of book I like to read is gay fiction and I was surprised to see a lot of it in the Dayton library's catalog. Plus you can even ask them to buy particular titles, and they will!
Below you can see the five most recent books either that I'm reading or that I've acquired. You can search my books, or you can see all my books. Also my classes page has links back to this page for the books for each class.

ISBN: 0440229383
| 2004-03-09 | 0440229383 | Whale Talk | Crutcher, Chris | ENG385 | | | This was an optional book for ENG385 (the other choices being Many Stones and Roll of Thunder, Hear my Cry). I chose this one since I saw that it was about misfits in high school. It is about that, but it touches on more issues, racism being a primary one. A very good read.
(4/10/2004 I noted when reading Ironman that I learned in ENG486 that Chris Crutcher decided to include a gay character in each of his books, but thinking back I can't remember the gay character in this book.) | |
