My Next Book

Now that I've finished Omnivore's Dilemma (John has read it; Jenny's reading now), I'd like to begin this. I recognized Barbara Kingsolver's name from The Poisonwood Bible, and knew her to be an accomplished writer.
Mrs. Kingsolver writes of leaving the family home in Tucson to live in their Appalachian farm. What ensues is her story of living off the land for a full year.

I am anxious to hear what you think of the book. I saw it at the bookstore and Poisonwood Bible is one of my favorite books. She is an amazing writer!

Looks good! I still need to finish the omnivores dilemma... maybe the school library has it.

When I see the trowel raised like that, I can only see coming down on a human body and chopping it to bits. Apparently I'm not allowed to watch anymore Friday the 13th marathons.
