Sorry, we're doing fiction. (I'm assuming that's a biography?)

The Time Travelers Wife was good. Painful too, if you are a runner, or former runner, or if you ever remembered what is was like to run..

I read it earlier this year, very good read. I think it even has book club discussion topics in the back.

--just curious--I don't mind if you guys don't mind.

I don't know if I can handle anything above 6th grade level. I read Tangerine, The Frog Princess, The Last of the Mohicans on Sunday.
