    Yo John! How's life willing the good? Gonna 'up my level' here on Shelfari, I'm not getting a lot of action. Is there a way someone can see ALL of my books right when they see my profile? Keep on keepin' on. --Shawn

    Hi!

    I'm in Portland! I haven't read too many native Oregonian/ Oregon transplant books yet but the ones I have read (a few by Bill Cameron, "Geek Love" by Katherine Dunn, "Clown Girl" by Monica Drake, and a couple of Ken Kesey novels) have been pretty good. I moved here two years ago so I'm not totally up on the local authors yet! :)

    J.M., I've fallen in love with my Kindle 2 so it will have to do for awhile. The Nook sounds great too! So many books to read, so little time...

    Thanks for the support! It is always, always appreciated.

    On another note, didn't you hate the suspense of waiting for the last books of the Dark Tower??? I think I almost died, lol.

    So, I finished reading Oracle Bones last week. I liked it, but I would've liked it even more if it had more characters ( as in people, not Chinese writing!), or was a bit shorter....it started to drag in parts for me. But, overall, a good read, and since I teach a number of Chinese and other Asian students, it was personally interesting. How's it going with Owen Meany? I don't see the book on your shelf yet, so I guess you haven't read it up til now... There are always so many book vying for our attention, aren't there? Hope all's well....
