so i just added a book to my list under my profile. "reservation blues" by sherman alexie. (thanks anthony for passing it along.) i don't know if i would categorize it as a "good story" exactly. i mean, i enjoyed it but it took some getting used to and it was definitely a strange story. overall, though, the ideas were good and it made excellent points about the plight of native americans.
speaking of books, another i should add eventhough i've not recently read it. "the sparrow" and its sequal "children of god" by mary doria russell. two of the most phenominal books i've ever read. but you have to promise to read the second if you read the first.
i'm now setting off to start reding "flux" by peggy orenstein. (recommended and passed on by michelle. thanks for lending the book and for a fun weekend!) i'm sure i'll give a full report of the book when i'm finished.
