Why do my feet get stinky when I'm only wearing sandals? On days like today I wish I had my car.
The return of Shiba puppy cam! And their puppies out of one the dogs from the first Shiba Inu Puppy cam litter.
I have a whole THING about Kingsolver. I really loved her early Arizona/NM books. It's gone downhill since then. I did not like Poisonwood Bible. I hated Animal Vegetable Mineral. Lacuna was annoying as shit. And the most recent was meh. Why do I keep reading her work? Because I loved Animal Dreams so much.
I love both the early books and, in a different way, Poisonwood Bible, which was the first book to really open up Africa to me. But the later ones have been really uneven. I liked The Lacuna OK, but Flight Behavior really grated on me, and I remember I didn't like Prodigal Summer all that much either. I will say, though, that Flight Behavior has really freaked me out but good about climate change, which is really what she's going for, I think, so... good for her?

Puppies!!! I remember loving the video of the grown shiba inu (Kimiko) watching the puppies on the computer and being so confused.
I also remember liking The Poisonwood Bible, but I don't remember what happend or what it was about.

Right? It was such a polemic (?), but definitely effective. It didn't help that it rained the whole week I was reading it.
I with the people who love Animal Dreams. I think I started with the Bean Trees and the other early books and didn't much like The Poisonwood Bible and have been unable to finished Lacuna.
Okay - check this out tiny secret paintings in books.
