What I'm reading *

I've always read. While growing up, reading was a refuge when I found life too unpleasant or stressful. Consequently I've bought a lot of books over time as well.

 
Now that I'm no longer in the rich corporate phase of my life I've rediscovered the library. Dayton's library may be maligned by some but is still a great resource. One type of book I like to read is gay fiction and I was surprised to see a lot of it in the Dayton library's catalog. Plus you can even ask them to buy particular titles, and they will!

Below you can see the five most recent books either that I'm reading or that I've acquired. You can search my books, or you can see all my books. Also my classes page has links back to this page for the books for each class.

2008-11-30 0670888087 The Danish Girl Eberschoff, David  
  This fictionalized account of the first transgendered MTF to undergo surgery, Einar Wegener AKA Lili Elbe, was quite interesting. Eberschoff retains the core of Einar's/Lili's story although he makes significant changes in the account of Einar's wife, named Greta in this book. The pace of the book's first two parts is better than that of its third part, which I thought dragged a bit. Still, the whole book's worth a read.
