		<description><![CDATA[I went home to New Orleans last week! It was great &#8212; then I found out why the tickets were on sale.  
While visiting fam, I got to do a lot of reading. Most of it wasn&#8217;t memorable, and actually was completely full of fail, but I&#8217;m gonna use this to talk about one [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
A follow-up to For the Love of Letters, Samara O&#8217;Shea&#8217;s Note to Self: On Keeping a Journal and Other Dangerous Pursuits describes her experiences as a chronic journaler, and argues passionately for the usefulness of journaling in one&#8217;s journey towards self-discovery. In both, she argues for a brief return to solitude, the very thing William [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This isn&#8217;t a full review, mostly because I JUST finished this as an audiobook, and am still overwhelmed by the sheer level of awesomeness contained within.
PLOT! Okay, basically some peace-lovin&#8217; hippies from San Francisco decide to take some monkeys from a mysterious &#8220;Mountain of Peace&#8221; nebulously near Kathmundu to SF and other major cities across [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I LOVE China Mieville. I want to make that clear. The end of Perdido Street Station ALWAYS makes me cry. Plus, he&#8217;s a smarty-pants who&#8217;s also written a book on Marxism and international law. All this gave me VERY high hopes for Un Lun Dun, Mieville&#8217;s foray into young adult fiction. Plus, I wanted find [...]]]></description>

While she&#8217;s still swept by the winds of fate, she emerges as a deeply religious girl [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This uneven half-memoir is interesting and quirky when not caught up in the actual plot. Its exploration of modern Cuban identity is surprisingly nuanced, especially when compared with The Dirty Havana Trilogy. However, unlike Dirty Havana, Dirty Blonde leaves uncomplicated the issues surrounding race and ethnicity when they&#8217;re treated as stable, essentialized concepts.
PLOT! Alysia is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Folks, this is AWESOME.
Okay, basically Walton&#8217;s set this alternative history in a world where Britain and Germany work things out, and WWII never happens. Germany&#8217;s building concentration camps ALL over the continent, and things suck for Eastern European Jews. Britain&#8217;s got its own issues with rising fascism, but, interestingly, Walton examines this rise in the upper classes. So, [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s available here: http://www.readingwarriors.com/rwshell.html.
HOWEVER, a quick skim through the titles recommended for further reading suggests that HC didn&#8217;t do the [...]]]></description>
