August had me missing in action on here, and for that I apologize. Theoretically, my schedule should be fairly laid back, now that I have completed my M.A. and am *only* working, but between two part time jobs (one of which includes teaching/grading three sections of Freshman Composition and Research), converting my thesis into journal articles for publication, getting ready to present at RMMLA, finishing my novel and a couple of short stories, prepping for the GRE, preparing PhD school applications, and little things like housework, marriage, and a social life, I've been mostly swamped.
Still, my loyal readers (all two and a half of you) deserve to know how my reading quest is going, and it's about time you got an update. Right? Right.
