I've been crazy about reading since I was about 4 or 5. And the fascination has never stopped. I love feminist sci-fi and dystopian literature.

I have a 3.5-year-old son, so we read lots of children's lit together.

    I was just glancing at your wish list and I saw The Princess Bride on it. That book was funny as hell. I have to say though, I think the movie did do it justice. Then again, when I read the book I had Mandy Patinkin's voice in my head when the Spaniard said, "Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." (One of the greatest movie quotes ever).

    Anyway, my copy is collecting dust on the shelf at my mother's house. I could mail it to you if you want to read it.

    Cheers,
    Phred

    Hi Misty,
    I recommend this book for all of my single mom friends. It's called in praise of single parents: mothers and fathers embracing the challenge. Check it out!

    Hahahaha! Hey, we can share the blame equally. The real damage will be done though, if you get me reading Flowers in the Attic after all these years.
