Books – July 2006

Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris
Required reading for international transplants trying to learn the language that surrounds them.

The Catcher in the Rye by JD Salinger
The first time I read this, I thought Holden just needed to get over himself. Now, I get it. I hope that’s not how John Hinckley, Jr. felt too.

What to Expect When You’re Expecting by by Heidi Murkoff, Arlene Eisenberg, Sandee Hathaway
Yes, that’s some kind of announcement. And you thought the World Cup results were a surprise. Stay tuned for January delivery.
