It must be time to revive this thread since the weather is much better for reading than riding. I just finished the book "My Abandonment" by Peter Rock, fascinating! A few years ago a runner was running in Portland's Forest Park and came across a camp where a man and his 13 year old daughter were living. This is a novel based on the initial story and a very well written book.

I've read lots of other books this winter, currently reading "Tonto and the Lone Ranger Fist Fight in Heaven" by Sherman Alexie, who is a wonderful writer. The book was the novel that the movie "Smoke Signals" was based on. If you haven't seen Smoke Signals, you should, one of my favorites.
