Ryn is on page 203 of 368 of The Death of Mrs. Westaway
Well, so far, I am having the same problem that I had with "In a Dark Dark Wood."" I think I know the outcome of the mystery, and I feel like the main character should know by now too. Why are you such a foolish fool, Hal? Of course, I have more info at this point than Hal does. So maybe I should give her a break.

Ryn is 35% done with The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts
Got this one for free from the Amazon Prime reading thing. Fluffy pop psychology but it has some merit. I was surprised to learn my partner's love language differed from my own and this explains some things.

Ryn is on page 31 of 148 of When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times
I think it has been slow reading for me because for some reason I find it stressful. It probably triggers my tendency to imagine the worst case scenario.

Ryn is 40% done with The Devil in the White City
It's painfully boring! I really really don't want to know this much about the Chicago World'd Fair of 1893. I just want to read about HH Holmes.

Ryn is 79% done with Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma
My favorite part so far is the description/explanation of trauma symptoms. I am audiobooking this one and the narrator is grating. I wish the author would stop referring to the person experiencing trauma as "the organism." I know he is trying to say that the experience of trauma is not unique to humans but stop with the pretense. I didn't learn as much as I would have liked.

Should be called The Idiots Guide to Dogs. Very basic. A skimmer.

Ryn is reading Dead as a Doornail (Sookie Stackhouse, #5)
This seems funny and clever. A sort of Buffy the Vampire slayer in book form.

Ryn is 35% done with A Dance with Dragons (A Song of Ice and Fire, #5)
Woe! I am just not as engrossed as I would wish to be. Having the messed up copy with 35 missing pages did not help, but I feel like the story us weaker and the boring lesser characters are getting too much time to talk about their plotting to take over the world. Gyah!

I am so upset! Amazon sent me a faulty copy of this book. It goes from page 240 and then there are a bunch of reprinted pages from earlier in the book. Then it resumes on page 274. What happened to Tyrion in the mist? I may never know!!!!!!

This is a riveting, moving, and inspiring story. So far I love it. I am feeling a five star rating is in order

Ryn is reading The Wolf in the Parlor: The Eternal Connection between Humans and Dogs
boooooooring and has surprisingly little to do with dogs or wolves. I should have gotten Susan Orlean's Rin Tin Tin which was my other choice at the library.

Ryn is reading Work: A Story of Experience
I really enjoying this feel good straight forward read, especially since my friend abilouise suggested I read it through the lens of, "Louisa May Alcott was most likely a big ol' dyke." Yes! Please!

It's tough reading this along side a Chelsea Cain thriller because it is just not as good.

Ryn is reading Year of Wonders
Sooooo amazingly great. Kara and I are listening to this one together and we are not allowed to listen unless the other is present. I read a review from someone who found this book too depressing. Well, to that person I say this. It's the plague! Almost everyone dies! What did you expect??!! This novel is just breath taking. I am in love with it.

Ryn is reading Walden or, Life in the Woods
I don't know if I am going to be able to stand the judgemental style of philosophy that Thoreau writes. Maybe I should just read John Muir instead.
