One more before I head to bed

Ah, the beauties of a holiday weekend. You can be more indolent and not feel too terribly guilty about it. Of course, it also helps that we're in rerun season now.

Anyway, #46 is The Magician's Assistant by Ann Patchett. I enjoyed Bel Canto, but I think I prefer this one. A lovely musing on self-invention, self-definition and the powers of love both as a force for creation and for destruction. The dream sections were my favorite. Achingly lovely. I'd recommend it.

Can I hit 50 before June 1st? Only the Shadow knows....
