Cannonball Read - Book 3

Success!  I feel caught up!  Book 3 is Here at the End of the World We Learn to Dance by Lloyd Jones.  First good thing about it: it's SHORT - 275 pages.  I need more books this length.  Any suggestions?

Next best thing about this book: everything else.  It was outstanding.  And so, so sad.  Not crying on the couch sad, but when I closed the book, I felt a heaviness in my heart, and I said, "Wow."  So it's THAT kind of sad.  I cared about the characters and the changing geography and timeline... and it really made me want to learn to tango.

Oh good. I'm glad you liked it. I really enjoyed it, too. I'm also glad it came in handy so early in the year.
