About prettyrain
The "Book-loving, coffee-drinking writer, mom and slacker loving the serendipitous life" actually sums it up pretty well... I'm a 36 year old mother, writer and expatriated American living in Canada.

I usually only write reviews for products I -really- recommend. And mostly for books. I'm a huge bibliophile (and javaphile) and would love to walk around downtown passing out books to people. People I don't know. Books I think everyone would love. Or should read...

Reviews of books you will love:

Prozac Highway, Persimmon Blackbridge
Intrusions, Ursula Hegi
Asleep, Banana Yoshimoto
Sabine's Notebook, Nick Bantok
Griffin and Sabine, Nick Bantok
Happy all the Time, Laurie Colwin
Wilderness, Dennis Danvers
The Artist's Way, Julia Cameron
le Divorce, Diane Johnson


I really like: kids, cats, books, coffee, hockey, swimming, art in any medium, Kinder Surprise toys, Kristin Hersh, horses, writing, chocolate oranges, Macintosh computers, shoes, the ocean, r.e.m., getting mail and watching obscure films.

I really don't like: ham, romance novels, romantic comedy movies, boxing, the NRA, stereotyping, Jerry Springer et al, beer, big chain bookstores, he-man action movies, diets, snakes, bugs and monkeys.
