Current Read

Well...I've just started it but it came recommended from a friend....I'm reading "Challenger Park" which is a fictional story about two astronauts who are married - one of whom is awaiting the first assignment. I'll update it as I continue to read....

I did finish reading "A Son of the Circus" by John Irving. Lots of characters, flashbacks through time, interesting story - but it did take quite a bit of time to read. Irving's better known books include A Prayer for Owne Meaney and Cider House Rules.
