A Good Read

There's a wonderful set of books by Jacqueline Winspear that are all about circa-post-Great War female "psychologist and investigator" Maisie Dobbs. Grab one of these if you'd like a delightful read -- it's easy, but definitely not fluff. They're like eating an entire bowl of popcorn by yourself on a rainy day (substitute whatever metaphor is appropriate for you!) I also have to highly recommend Leif Enger's new book, So Brave, Young, and Handsome. I cried at the end, not because of the ending, but because the story was over and my new friends were gone.
