I'm impressed. I had to look up the clique books to see if you were right about the cover. Are you watching Gossip Girl when I'm not around? Wow, Trevor. I’m impressed.

Oh well, I haven't seen a pleasing cover of <em>Oscar Wao</em> yet, either. Or really <em>The Road</em> for that matter.

I'm not sure which I'd rather be holding in the train. Probably the North American edition, which I stopped feeling embarrassed about when I realized just how much I was enjoying what was inside.

I’m not sure when I would have read Olive Kitteridge (2008; Pulitzer), if ever, had it not been awarded the Pulitzer Prize last Monday. For one thing, the book is not marketed to me.

Not marketed to you? Have you seen the UK edition?

I'm sure you remember, but one of the best days of my life so far: when my first son started sleeping through the night. And we are just beginning to experience that with our second son. I am experiencing the joy all over again! Today I woke up even later, Rhys. I’m sure you remember, but one of the best days of my life so far: when my first son started sleeping through the night.
