		<description><![CDATA[So far, I have stuck with my resolution not to buy books.  The local library is tiny but has a great fiction selection.  I could have easily walked away with three or four when I visited earlier this week.  I limited myself to just two: The 19th Wife by David Ebershoff, a tale of Mormons [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite having a wonderful library in Williamsburg, I rarely darkened the door in the past decade.  I am a book buyer rather than a borrower. It hasn&#8217;t always been that way.  I&#8217;ve been a library volunteer, and in my commuting days&#8211;pre-Audible and ipod&#8211;I often stopped by the library to check out audio books, but once [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t read Little Women for at least a decade, maybe two, but I remember it being a heartwarming novel with plucky characters. Geraldine Brooks&#8217; novel, March, takes its basic story from that beloved novel but does not offer the same heartwarming pluckiness. It is a dark book, but in it darkness, we learn about [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[According to Library Thing, I read 33 books this year. It&#8217;s definitely a low for me. I usually get closer to 50 and last year got close to 75 as part of a challenge. It&#8217;s a testament to two things: moving to the farm and getting stuck with a couple books. While the move to [...]]]></description>

I set up the ironing board and my new sewing machine&#8211;more later&#8211;in the upstairs room and finished up a pillow that had been half done for several years. An honest [...]]]></description>
