I am a reader and book evangelist. For many years I have kept a reading journal with little descriptions of the books I read and dates I read them. Kind of a trail of book bread crumbs that chart my interests over a given course of time. This blog gives me a way to continue my journal and share my reading interests with others. My latest adventures in creating, dining, and traveling can be found at my website LindasOtherLife.com

A Long Way Down by Nick Hornby
This book was a gift from my dear friend Anne Flectcher who we stayed with in San Jose. I have never really read any of Hornby's others. This is the story of four people from distinctly different walks of life who meet on the rooftop on New Year's Eve. They have decided to commit suicide by jumping off of the roof, but the decide to work together to get through a few more weeks instead. It is quirky, darkly humorous and British.
