Read!
I never feel like my day has ended well if I have not read for a few minutes before bed. I always need a book to go to when I want to learn, escape, or relax. How do you like my popsicle bookmark?!
I just completed “Sky Burial” last night and was totally moved by it! It’s this month’s book club selection and I appreciated a shorter novel. Most of the books we have read this year have been between 350-500 pages. This book is a short 167 pages and is utterly one of the most beautiful stories. The reader learns more about China, a lot about Ttibet, culture, religon, family and of course undying love. I can not recommend this book more. It’s a super short read- you could literally finish it in a day and forget about everything else.
So- to celebrate my sort of blog anniversary (I have had a blog since 2004, but really began writing more consistently a year ago…not sure why my archives does not indicate this), I will give this book away. Just leave a comment and I will do a drawing on Friday. The only thing I ask is that you mail the book to my sister when you are finished- there is no timeline, just pop it in the mail.
Now, this book is occupying my attention. It was referenced in the series of NPR stories and so I checked it out from my library. I like this book so much I just may need to devote an entire post to it!
Okay, READ!
Bwahahahahahahaha.
