I will be interested to hear if you enjoy ELEANOR & PARK... :-) Wed, 8 May 2013 19:13:57 +0000 http://devafagan.com/2013/05/recent-read/#IDComment638027663 http://devafagan.com/2013/05/how-knitting-is-like-writing/#IDComment634898632 I didn't know you knitted! I love the notion of running your hands over the finished stitches each day. I do the same thing re-reading the previous days writing to start the new session.

I am not sure I could do it, otherwise...

Grandma is definitely one of my inspirations for getting into knitting.

Good luck with your own revision!!!

I am so glad you enjoyed it! I have now zoomed through nearly all the Casson books-- just started Forever Rose yesterday-- and I agree, they are a fascinating study in human nature in general and different female characters specifically. Much as I love Rose, I kind of wish we got to see a little more of Caddy and Saffy and Sarah as they are all such different and interesting and real characters.

I hope it is useful to you! You can do all sorts of other things with it like have it warn you if you have been too long in any \\\"distracting\\\" app/website, I think, though I have not tried those features.

I definitely prefer more specific goals to general resolutions, myself. I am still figuring out what mine will be for 2013. And I so appreciate the support -- I know PM has the best possible chance it can get with you in its corner!

So was the food. I had a lot of favorites (more on that in my eventual trip report) but the pastries and cakes were definitely high on the list. Yum!

Wish you could have seen it all in person too!

But so much easier than doing tons of inter-library loans and then just sending the books back after 10 pages...!

I\\\'m so glad you enjoyed it, and best of luck in achieving those dreams!

I\\\'ve heard good things about dreamhost though. Good luck!

Mon, 2 Apr 2012 10:11:40 +0000 http://devafagan.com/2012/03/the-state-of-things/#IDComment329863508 http://devafagan.com/2012/03/recommendations/#IDComment320312909 I\\\'m glad! One of my favorite parts of blogging and the internet is hearing what folks read and getting new suggestions for my to-read list! Which is probably why it is now so enormously long! Tue, 20 Mar 2012 11:26:14 +0000 http://devafagan.com/2012/03/recommendations/#IDComment320312909 http://devafagan.com/2012/03/recommendations/#IDComment315186507 I never read the original and was wondering what someone might think who was familiar with it! Glad you both enjoyed it!

I actually do like that very last one too, but #3 is still my favorite.

I hope you enjoy it if you do get to check it out!

I myself do hope to get an ereader at some point, but I expect I'll always enjoy reading certain books in paper form!
