I was a little nervous about trying Woolf for the first time because people usually either love or hate her. I just happened to fall into the love category. She'd be good for the classics or the Year of Reading Dangerously if you're doing that one. :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00795619401977840939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7425401134381509448.post-23174253622595074802009-04-28T19:33:00.000-04:002009-04-28T19:33:00.000-04:00It sounds like you had a wonderful Saturday, Lisa,...It sounds like you had a wonderful Saturday, Lisa, except for the death of your husband's uncle.

His uncle lived a good, long life and died suddenly, which is about the best way to go I suppose. At least, it wasn't a long drawn-out illness. Yes, Saturday was ideal. I'd like to order up about 10 more days just like it. :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00795619401977840939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7425401134381509448.post-68053842823765436572009-04-28T13:37:00.000-04:002009-04-28T13:37:00.000-04:00Sorry to hear about your husband's uncle.

I just got A Jury of Her Peers from the library yesterday...can't wait to take a look at it. Our farmers market should be starting up for the season soon.
