#40 is Patchwork Planet by Anne Tyler. The writing was fine, but I never connected deeply with the characters. I haven't read any Tyler since The Accidental Tourist years ago and I'm beginning to think that her brand of quirky just doesn't jive with mine.
#41 was Dispatches from a Not-So-Perfect Life : Or How I Learned to Love the House, the Man, the Child by Faulkner Fox. While I often found the author not particularly likeable, this was an occasionally gripping look at a modern woman's viewpoint on being a wife and mother and how that fits with feminist sensibilities. I think that she might have benefited from some good mood stabilizers at certain points of her journey, but that's just me. I doubt Betty Boop had this much angst about gender roles and equality. ;)
