just finished unbroken, by laura hillenbrand. i've heard great things about it and was a little worried it might not live up to all of the hype. i have this weird aversion to reading really popular books, which is not at all logical (i've never read a single harry potter book for this reason). anyhow, after my mom and sister both recommended it, i reserved it at the library (there was a long list. see? popular book). thanks to the fast king county library system, i got it a week later and i read it in a few days.
it's popular for a reason. it's a great book. it's very engaging and very well written. also, i knew very little about POWs in general, especially those in the pacific arena during WWII, so it was very informative. and it was very inspiring. lots of great things that i could say about this book. but my baby's hungry, so i'm going to leave it at that and just recommend it highly.
