Well I just finished Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God. I especially enjoyed the dialogue used:
"Aw, git reconciled! Dat woman don't want you. You got tuh learn dat all de women in de world ain't been brought up on no teppentine still, and no saw-mill camp. There's some women dat jus' ain't for you tuh broach. You can't get her wid no fish sandwich."
Also interesting is that Hurston was born in Notasulga, Alabama.
So on to the next order of business. Patti wanted me to read book #777 which is The Riddle of the Sands by Erskine Childers. However, I cannot make it to the bookstore for a few days because of work so I will fill the gap by doing what I was suppose to do some 14 years ago. The next book is The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway.
