I Love March Madness

Finally, after lo these many years, I'm enthusiastic about March Madness!  You read right, this not-really-a-sports-fan is super excited about March Madness!

Recently, I was greeted at the library by this giant March Madness Book Bracket poster.  I love it!  My favorites in this series were Gone Girl, Life of Pi, and, of course, The Hunger Games.  I read The Poisonwood Bible three times: once for pleasure and abandoned it pretty early on since I didn't find it enjoyable, second for a graduate class where I slogged through every page, and the third time was for a different graduate class, where I fell in love with it.

Babyface and I are regulars at a couple of local libraries, where we pick up novels and books on CD for me, toddler-friendly books for him, listen to about five minutes of story time, play with the library's toys, and eat raisins.  I can't wait to see what books win this March Madness!

The Hunger Games swept the series! The library crowd went wild! Let's go, Katniss, let's go!
