    Hey Renee! I just finished The Space Between Us by Thrity Umrigar. It was a book club selection, not one I would have chosen by myself, but it was well worth the read. I really enjoyed the discussion surrounding this book. I thought Splendid suns was much more intimate than kite runner. It described the day to day existence, sometimes brutal, for women in Afghanistan, and there was no America to mitigate the suffering. I just found out about the publishing company twelve, and finished the book The Geography of Bliss. If you like Bill Bryson, you will LOVE Eric Weiner! There are also some books that this house has published that sound intriguing. check it out! http://www.twelvebooks.com/content/index.asp We're going up north til after the fourth, but we should get together and read by the pool- oh, and the margaritas aren't bad out there, either! Cheers!
