I have only very rarely abandoned a novel without finishing it, but I did this one. Proulx is an author whose work I’ve admired, but I could not get interested in this one.

Didnt have time to get all the way through before my library loan expired, but the recipes I did try were indeed easy and delicious.

I just finished Becoming Nicole: The Transformation of an American Family. Highly recommend. If it weren't for the Read Harder Challenge, I might never have discovered it, so I'm glad to be participating in this broadening exercise.

It's been a long, long time since I've abandoned a book, especially one by an author who has also written one of my favorite novels. But I just could not find anything to capture and sustain my interest here.

This is a reference book I will be reading for a long time to educate myself about semi-tropical plants.
