Poisonwood Bible may be Barbara Kingsolver's best selling title, but fortunately it's not the only book she's given us. I'm soaking up Animal Dreams now. At about a third of the way into one of her books, I try to slow down, to a slow-motion crawl. Her books are that good to me - her characters so dear, and the stories so real that even though I know they're just ink on paper, I also know the end (of the book) is coming and I'll be a bit depressed when I'm done with it (and them).
Sigh.
In this case, of course, once I've closed Animal Dreams I'll have plenty of other reading to do. I picked up Team of Rivals at the library, again.
Sigh.
