What's Going On Here?

There are SO MANY wonderful book review blogs out there and I can't compete with them, that is for sure. So this is not a book review blog. This is just a way for me to organize what I have read so that I can be better at matching the right book to the right person. The blog title comes from the brilliant mind of the most talented woman who ever lived, Ms. Judy Garland. The full quote is, "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of someone else." That is what I hope to do here and in ever aspect of my life.

Dogs and All

I am not a big dog fan.  I am not anti-dog, it's just that I am a much more a cat person and dogs do scare me.  Now I know this book was about MUCH more than dogs.  But the only reason why I didn't love this as much as the other books I have read by her.  Ward won the National Book Award for Salvage the Bones and it is one of those cases were an award committee gets it right!  It is set during Hurricane Katrina in Ward's fictional Mississippi town of Bois Sauvage on the Gulf Coast
