Gatsby it is

F. Scott Fitzgerald has some fans. The votes are in, and Gatsby gets it by a mile. Thanks to everyone who voted in the poll, you're opinions were invaluable, and also thanks for suggestions for other books to add to my list.

I started reading The Great Gatsby a couple of days ago, and so far I am really enjoying it. I'll talk about it more once I finish it.

Speaking of reading books and talking about them, I'm reading two more that I look forward to telling you about. Soundtrack to the End of the World by Anthony Rapino has been my late night read. You already know how I feel about Anthony and his twisted tales. And I just grabbed a kindle edition of Gathering Darkness by Chris Allinotte, a fine writer and fellow Canadian. I'm looking forward to delving into this collection of his stories. His book is also available in paperback.

I'm going to apologize in advance for not being around. It's that time of year. The kids are finishing up at school, there's the elementary leaving ceremony, my oldest has her high school graduation, and then there's the European tour with the show choir. My schedule is pretty much packed for the next month. It's hectic, but I'm very excited about it all.

I think that's it for the housekeeping. I'm off. It's a beautiful day, the sun is shining, and there's painting to be done. How glamorous my life is.
