I have been busy reading/hearing many books in the past several weeks. Several come to mind: Ghost Image, China Run, I Love You Phillip Morris, The Natural History of the Rich, Baby Momma Drama, The Other Boleyn Girl, The Apprentice: My Life in the Kitchen, and Stone Garden. But it was the only Braille book on the list of recent reads that I want to mention here. I like to read nonfiction books in Braille. You can skim around, look at recipes, essays, and such quickly. This book would be good to read along with say a suspenseful novel. You could take a break from the edginess and read a short essay or two for a nice change of pace. I don't often do this but enjoy it when I do. Obviously, books of photos and coffee table art books are out of my purvue, but this type of short nonfiction works well.
