It has been a great couple of weeks for reading for me lately. I have finished quite a few good books. This one, Grand Central Winter: Stories from the Street by Lee Stringer was really good. Essentially it is a memoir about him living on the streets of New York for over a decade, trying to surmount this, trying to deal with a crack addiction, AND deal with starting his own newspaper about homeless issues. It was pretty impressive and he meets all types of people along the way. Definitely made me want to take action, do something Have you read a book like that at all? Have you read any good ones lately ?

That does sound like a good book. I will have to see if I can find it. I haven't read anything good in a while. I normally try and read at bedtime but lately I have been so tired that I go straight to sleep.

I need to put this on my to read list. Its just about time for a skiing trip and I read while my husband goes out and gets cold skiing. I haven't read anything lately to recommend.
