The Two Towers, by J.R.R. Tolkien
Part 2. They're marching. Marching marching marching. I feel like I cheated a little by seeing the movie -- come back, Gandalf! I know you do.

Little Earthquakes, by Jennifer Weiner
She is so lovely, that Jennifer Weiner. Her writing is so accessible and poignant and unpretentious and great. This was a four-pronged story told by four different women -- one of whom was written in first person and the other three of whom were not, which was a cool technique -- about babies and losing babies and finding babies. Grade: A.

Book for review about two early physicists, one of whom poisons the other. Cool.
