landofnowhereBeing away for the holidays has messed up my sense of days of the week, so I'm also catching up with last week's reading here.
Making Time: Lillian Moller Gilbreth, a Life Beyond "Cheaper by the Dozen", by Jane Lancaster. Finished this, continued to enjoy, I feel like there are essays and essays that could be said about what's in it, but will not be writing them now.
The Great Hunt and The Dragon Reborn (books 2 and 3 of The Wheel of Time), Robert Jordan. Continuing my Wheel of Time read (I enjoyed season 1 of the TV show); the last time I tried this series I got stuck maybe a bit over halfway through book 2, but have made it past that point now; the books definitely are improving so far, especially as I get past the most annoying bits of teenage boy POV. Verin is definitely my favorite character in the books; she is a total nerd and often comes off as spacey/absentminded, but also seems to know more than she lets on. I'm enjoying spending time with the girls (who are not always the smartest/wisest either, but still fun to be around) -- Elayne definitely strikes me as a descendant of Eilonwy.
