I promised to read, and read I did. The Dutch railway company helped me out by not letting trains go through betwen The Hague and Utrecht, forcing me to wait for 30 minutes at the station. Read since last weekend:

Kirstie Alley - How to loose your ass and regain your life
There's a lot in it if you want to read about Kirstie, not much about regaining your life or loosing your ass.I liked her open way of digging into the memories that are behind her distorted view of herself.

Madam my mother- Yvonne Keuls
I read this one already and like the first time, it made me cry. My grandmother is also called mammie and she never found shoes that she could walk on, being used to the Indonesian climate and wearing slippers all day.

Johnny and the dead- Terry Pratchett
Nice, though the humor and writing is not as sharp as in the discworld series. Love it though, he has a unique view on the world and a clear and a clear way of putting his idease into words.
