The Green Toad is my local bookshop, which is the best place to go if you'd like a signed copy of Sweater Quest. I can drop down to the store and personalize a copy for you, too. Just drop Michele an email and she'll set you up. - Sweater Quest : Excerpt
Annnnnnnnd something to whet your desire. - The finished cardigan

The first chapter. - The Boston Globe
- The SF Chronicle
I debated about adding this one, since it is less than flattering. However, if I'm going to point to the good ones, it seems only fair to point to the mediocre ones. After all, ignoring bad press is the federal government's job, not mine. - ELLE Magazine

I can only begin to tell you how much fun this interview was. - Interview podcast from Psychjourney

on the nightstand
- Jeffrey Eugenides: The Marriage Plot: A Novel
What. a. book. And now to settle in to wait the next ten years... - K. J. Parker: Devices and Desires (Engineer Trilogy)
Oh, Parker. Why are you so good? - Genevieve Valentine: Mechanique: A Tale of the Circus Tresaulti
Dang. What a great book. And I still think circuses will be the next vampire. - Seth Mnookin: The Panic Virus: A True Story of Medicine, Science, and Fear
Mnookin is an am-az-ing reporter and this books shows off all of his skills. I'm the choir here, tho. Not sure how it played in the anti-vax circles. Not well, I'd reckon. - Ann Patchett: State of Wonder
I swoon. (I'm not quite convinced she stuck the landing, however.) - Jonathan Lethem: The Fortress of Solitude
I've had an ARC of this on my shelf since it first came out and could never make it past the first 60 pages. Finally pushed through last week. It's a wonderful book but so ... I don't know... removed? Isolating? - Ann Patchett: The Magician's Assistant
How beautiful is this book? None more beautiful. Patchett is simply leaves me full of awe and wonder. - Sarah Vowell: Unfamiliar Fishes
I'm not reading this so much as listening to it at the gym as I run to nowhere. It's a little too slow to be great running material but we work with what we have. Vowell is, as usual, her oddly engaging self. What strikes me most, however, is how much and how far 18th and 19th century folk traveled - and how close to home most of us now stay, despite how much easier it is to get places in the 21st century.
