I just finished Brain on Fire by Susannah Cahalan and all I can say is wow!
I picked this book up in the airport on my way back from DC. The book had been recommended to me and I had no idea it would be so good. The minute I read the first page I knew I would be sucked in. It is hard for me to really read on an airplane, but I had no problem with this book.
While on my DC trip, I was able to finish The Night Journey by Kathryn Lasky.
I read this book when I was a kid and was compelled to read it again. I remembered bits and pieces of the book. It was interesting to read a book as an adult that I had enjoyed as a kid. It meant something different to me. It read differently. What I enjoyed most is the message I wrote on the inside front cover.
First of all, how do you keep out of a book? Second, my handwriting back then was horrible! What was up with that S?
