twenty-eight/fifty-two

(This one was actually read in April.)

I've been reading very very slowly, mostly light stuff or comics, as I've explained elsewhere (I feel like I've even explained it here, but I don't think I have), I've been crafting and doing springlike things and I probly won't be doing a lot of good reading until vacation or even fall. It just gets too hot in here to concentrate except at night, and my nights are filled with cookouts and crafting and (right now) season finales. Not that I'm forsaking books for tv -- this summer I'm not planning on spending much time camped out in front of the tube at all. We have a yard now, and damn it all, I will use it for good and not evil.

ANYWAY. Number twenty-eight was Maus II: A Survivor's Tale: And Here My Troubles Began by the talented Mr. Spiegelman. If I hadn't already bought it (my library didn't have it), I would be buying it right now. It's that good.

I really think everyone should read the Maus books. I don't feel that way about many books, but I think it's true here. Although most people have probly already read them.

Good books. That is all.
