I am currently reading Lies My Teacher Told Me by James Loewen. I have tried to read this a few times now. I have never made it past Chapter 1. I keep getting distracted and then forget and have to start over though.
I just started Voyager by Diana Gabaldon. I wasn't sure I was going to start it right away, as I just finished the second in the series, but now I'm dying to know what happens next.
ZOODOO...I liked it. Had to get Autobiography of a Face by Lucy Grealy which is what I am reading now. She (Lucy Grealy) is the friend in Truth and Beauty. Finished
Oh, I knew that! But I can't remember if I read it or not! I'm terrible! I'm sure I'd read Patron Saint of Liars before, because I knew the whole story line, but I didn't remember the actual writing, you know? I read Autobiography of a Face years ago, and when I heard that Ann Patchett was writing about her, I wanted to read it, but I'm not sure if I ever pulled it off.
Eggsecutive Orders by Julie Hyzy (with Easter this w/e, what else?)
cheerbear 22: I've read Loewen's Lies Across America, I think that's a very interesting book (about how the narratives told at many monuments and historic places are very biased or outright wrong: i.e., at the home of Helen Keller they try to make it look like she was a Southern belle positively reeking of magnolias, they display the Confederate flag and all, when in fact her politics were VERY left-wing). Should read again
