Book Recommendation
Calling all Page Six people!!!
You should check out Azar Nafisi's Reading Lolita in Tehran. Even though being women under a fundamentalist Islamic regime is a far cry from having an incredible professor ousted from a Christian college/university in the States, the book really resonated with me and my experience with the Page Six movement.
And while I'm recommending books, does anyone else have reading recommendations????

Ooh! Thanks for the rec! I love expanding my must-read-this-summer book list! :o) Excellent!
And if you haven't read it already, you really should check out Brian Greene's Fabric of the Cosmos . I'm about half-way through, and I think it's got some pretty interesting ideas about space and time.
And, (I'm sure you've probably read it) Around the World in 80 Days is one of my favorites. Even if you've read it several times, it's worth another reading. :o)
Almost anything by Richard Feynman is pretty entertaining.
Happy reading! (keep me posted on your great literary finds! I'm always looking for more great books to read!)
I read Contact by Carl Sagan and totally enjoyed it. I must now go rent the movie! (again...)
Today I just finished reading The Lost German Slave Girl by John Bailey. It's about an enslaved woman claiming that she was white and fighting for her freedom in 1840s New Orleans. I recommend it--it's quite good.
