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

Winter of Our Discontent by John Steinbeck
So my summer of Steinbeck is almost over. I bought a copy of Winter of Our Discontent in California at the Steinbeck Center after finding that my cousin's daughter wrote about this novel on her AP Lit test this year. It did not disappoint. I am still under the spell of Steinbeck's prose - nothing else this summer, Oates aside, has quite compared. There are pages of one-liner super quotes in this late novel of Steinbeck's.
