	Catherine gave to: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time (Paperback) by Mark Haddon	my rating:
	Catherine said: "Haddon creates a nice rhythm that slowly builds into a tension in the reader that's shared with the main character, a 15 year old boy with autism. It's a little gut wrenching, and definitely an educational experience. " add a comment
	Catherine gave to: Saturday (Paperback) by Ian McEwan	my rating:
	read in June, 2008 Catherine said: "Meh... I find myself stuck between loving McEwans writing--he is such an astute observer-- and walking away having gained nothing from his books.

	Catherine gave to: The Unbearable Lightness of Being (Paperback) by Milan Kundera	my rating:
	read in June, 2008 Catherine said: "I got a lot out of this book, and I think I could re-read it every ten years and get something different out of it each time.

	Catherine said: "As a victim of the "volunteer library" which is my only source of literature as of late, I polished off Bridges in nearly one sitting. A quick, easy, fairly badly written read. Yet, to my dismay, and against my better judgement, I found m...more " add a comment
	Catherine gave to: Grassroots Grants: An Activist's Guide to Proposal Writing (Paperback) by Andy Robinson, Kim Klein	my rating:
	read in May, 2008 Catherine said: "Succinct, helpful, but considering it's 2008, slightly outdated. " add a comment
	Catherine added: What Good Are the Arts? (Hardcover) by John Carey bookshelves: couldn-t-finish	my rating:
	read in May, 2008 Catherine said: "Didn't finish it, but not because I don't enjoy a good deconstruction of the arts. I had to get on a plane and return it lest I come home to face killer over-due library fines (and if you've ever been a Terp, you'll understand). " add a comment
