I'd especially love to see northern Africa and New Zealand. And I have eastern Europe on my list this week too.<br /><br />Autumn Cornwell's "Carpe Diem" is one that involves a trip through southern Asia -- I forget where exactly they visited, but it stood out as an unusual locale. And Laura Resau's "The Indigo Notebook" is one that was really beautiful in depicting Ecuador.<br /><br /><a href="http://rainbowstevie.livejournal.com/1214954.html" rel="nofollow">Mine</a>.

I did read I AM NOT ESTHER not long ago. It's about a girl whose mother sends her to live with a relative who is part of a religious cult. It was interesting, but I didn't love it.<br /><br />Happy TTT!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344704891037668456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3891836148334813580.post-77309042597123898032019-07-23T15:45:46.811-07:002019-07-23T15:45:46.811-07:00I need some Big Flight of the Conchords Energy in ...I need some Big Flight of the Conchords Energy in my reading life!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3891836148334813580.post-58079340101783761192019-07-23T15:45:16.384-07:002019-07-23T15:45:16.384-07:00Right?
