A Northern Light

What a gorgeous book! I couldn't put it down! I highly recommend "A Northern Light" by Jennifer Donnelly. It's the wonderful, raw story of a young girl growing up poor in northern New York State in the early 1900's. She dreams of college, but resigns herself to marrying young and working hard . . . but will she give up on her dreams? Lovely, lovely book.

Jessica recommends. . . .

The Brothers Grimm was great, classic Gilliam. And Transporter 2 was actually better than Transporter 1, plotwise, and not as good car-chase-wise.

In the book world: Philippa Gregory's The Other Boleyn Girl, and Herbie Brennan's Faerie Wars. I couldn't decide which one to read first, so I'm reading them simultaneously!
