Book rec
I just picked up a copy of The Poisonwood Bible that was lying by the side of the street (that's how I get half my books - everyone in my neighbourhood leaves boxes of them out) and HATED the beginning of it. But I stuck with it and finished it at 2 am last night. It was great!

YES! I love this book! You're right that the beginning is a bit hard to get into (it took me a while to get used to the voice the author used, but it's SO worth it!
Have you read Barbara Kingsolver's non-fiction book, Animal, Vegetable, Miracle? It's about how she and her family spend a year eating only local food (meat, dairy, produce, everything). A really fascinating read, although I disagreed with some of her conclusions (like that anyone can eat mostly local by going to their farmer's market - we only have them once a month in my area and it's primarily jams, etc., so we'd starve to death if we tried that!). I highly recommend it!

LOL yeah, I don't think it's as practical for most people as it was for her and her family - they own a farm, knew a lot of people with beef or dairy cows, etc. It really was an interesting read though (she's a very engaging writer), and did make me think a little more about where my food was coming from, even if most of it still isn't local.
