QUESTION: What is your favorite Sarah Vowell or Mary Roach book?
CURRENTLY READING: The Actor and the Housewife by Shannon Hale is what I plucked off the library stack this morning. I loved her other novel for adults, Austenland, and so far this one has the same sense of humor. The story has a chick lit flavor but so far it is not as predictable as some books in that genre.
UPCOMING: Summer is upon us, so I'm hoping that I will make a dent in my goal to read 50 books this year. I'm also going to do another culling of my TBR list to narrow it down to books that still appeal to me. At 221 titles, it has become a meaningless jumble of words instead an enticing list of books begging to be read. With the pull of video games and TV, I need my TBR list to scream at me!

Packing the Mars by Roach is a pretty decent book.
I just bought Unfamiliar Fishes by Vowell but I haven't read it yet. I did enjoy Assassination Vacation from her rather a lot. I have read Stiff by Roach and once I got past some of the graphic yuckies, it was a good read. Have others of hers but have yet to read them. So no definitive "best book" recommendations from me I guess!
