I even checked the local Borders to see which section it was in (bio/memoir, which is where Jill said it belonged, not travel).<br /><br />I listened to OUTLIERS on audio.

It was a good discussion. <br /><br />I just saw Shiver somewhere and it caught my eye. <br /><br />I remember liking Like Water for Chocolate. The movie was odd but the book was delightful. <br /><br />The sun keeps getting hidden by these weird clouds right now. It's like 95 degrees but the weather is getting gloomy.
