Just completed #3 (Gone With the Wind) - book:The Summer Without Men|10223697] by Siri Hustvedt. Overall, I enjoyed this book. It is not plot-driven at all. Rather, it is driven by words. I couldn't read this one in big chunks; it had to be savored. And while I appreciated the author's obvious love of words and her careful choices, it became a touch disjointed towards the end. Worth reading! 3.5 stars
