The Art of Racing In the Rain -
Did this one as an audio book driving to/from work during the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas. This book is a tragedy in the best sense of the word. Devastatingly sad, but a great story narrated by a dog about the life of his owner. It’s definitely rated R for language and some sexual content, but it’s a really interesting way to look at a different worldview with fresh eyes. And I must say I thought twice the next time I spoke to a dog after finishing this book.
The Mighty Queens of Freeville -
This one wasn’t a favorite of mine. I did finish it though, and in a fairly short amount of time, so it did hold my interest (I may have a tendency to quit books), I just didn’t get much out of it. It’s a biographical book by the woman who took over Ann Landers’ advice column and tells the story of her family and personal life. Nothing too earth shattering here, just someone sharing their story with world. Which is nothing to discredit, just wasn’t something I found particularly riveting. I give it a solid “ehh.”
