everybody reads

right now i am reading the girl who fell from the sky, which is the multnomah county library everybody reads book this year.   the book itself is sad, but beautifully written, and is set in my north portland neighborhood in the 1980s, which is especially interesting.   i probably would have ended up reading this book anyway, but i think it is such an amazing opportunity to read it at the same time as thousands of other portlanders.  it makes me wonder about the effect heidi durrow is having on our city's collective consciousness.  interesting stuff, for sure.
have you read it yet?
