Working Two Jobs

I am currently working two jobs and this is why I'm so absent from the blog. I promise I will try to get back here more often after September, when I will be only working one job.

Just to give an update - I am currently reading the Hunger Games - so good! I can't believe I resisted for so long! I also really want to read Midnight in Peking, set in 1912, a true crime novel, I heard the author speak on NPR and read a review on the Washington Post, it sounds so fascinating! Midnight in Peking is set in Peking, China on the eve of the revolution and the deals with the British ex-pat community. Its a world I know little about and it seems that the author has provided great insight into that time period. Also, while I don't like True Crime set in the modern era, I don't mind reading about times very far removed. If you have read this book, let me know what you thought!
