I'm reading Crime and Punishment. It surprised me. I had preconceptions of the book which made me think that it was going to be boring, but it's really interesting.

I am reading Seventeen Against The Dealer by Cynthia Voight, the last novel in the Tillerman series. And just before that, I read Life After  God...quite  an interesting collection of short stories. Reading a lot lately, for sure.

I am reading "A Mutlibiography of Ingatius of Loyola", rather slow going. It was a gift that I feel obligated to read. I usually have one or two other books going at the same time, but the past few weeks have been busy and my brain isn't up to cataloguing multiple story lines. So instead I'm catching up on magazines that have been accumulating: National Geographic, Smithsonian, The Sun, Harpers, Yankee.
