Reading Dewey's Books

I'm just announcing what I'll be reading in memory of Dewey. I'll be reading one book from each year of Dewey's posts at 'The Hidden Side of The Leaf':

Nation - Terry Pratchett (2008) - yay a new non Discworld book
The Plot Against America - Philip Roth (2007)
Candide - Voltaire (2006) - this one is a bit of a cheat as Dewey never reviewed it but menioned she was re-reading it, sounds fantastic and I couldn't resist it
The Birth of Venus - Sarh Dunant (2005) - looking forward to this after reading The Company of the Courtesan last year
The Inner Circle - TC Boyle (2004)
The Virgin Blue - Tracey Chevalier (2003)

I won't be joining the Knit-a-long with the 'someday' scarf in sea themed multi-coloured wool. It measures about an inch now and although the tension is so, so wrong and it took forty stitches to make it a decent scarf size I am still determined to finish this first knitting project...someday. Good luck to all you committed knitters.

This weekend I'll be drinking with friends and probably waking up with a large hangover. Wuhoah in the moment, oh no the mornign after :)
