A Novel of the OK Corral

We've been so busy with garden chores--snapping/freezing beans, peas, and canning tomatoes that I've can't keep my eyes open at night when I normally would be reading. Oh well, it will even out this winter when it's too cold to get outside and do anything. Hermetic, I like your idea of listening to audiobooks while working and think I will get a few audio books to listen to while we are snapping beans. I loved The Blind Assassin as well as The Shipping News.

ETA: Enthusiast, let us know how Ms. E likes Michael Crummey's Galore. I liked Water for Elephants, too, and am putting At the Water's Edge on my list.
