    I listened to Bossypants while driving back to WA from CA. I’m not usually one for books on tape, but it was amazing! I thought the Violets of March and Water for Elephants were pretty excellent as well.

    Not too long ago, I finished Girls of the Atomic City. It was interesting, but took me forever to get through. Some non-fiction, no matter the narrative, is just too packed with information to process that much at once. I just started the Book Thief. My initial impressions are somewhat mixed, but it’s a quick read so far.

      OMG Bossypants is so amazing, I can’t even deal. I’ve loved both of Sarah Jio’s books I’ve read so far — Blackberry Winter and The Violets of March. (Although, is it me, or do the titles make you feel like you’re reading some awful supermarket paperback?)
