What does a Librarian do on vacation? Well, read, of course! The Evergreen list provided great entertainment ideas to help pass many hours flying and waiting in airports. Here's what I read on vacation...
Dream Wheels by Richard Wagamese Joe Willie Wolfchild is about to become a World Champion rodeo cowboy when he is severely injured by a bull he is riding. As he comes to terms with the way his life has changed as a result of the injury, he is supported by his close family. Claire Hartley and her son Aiden have lived a nomadic life as Claire has moved from one unsuitable man to another. After Aiden is arrested as a result of a botched robbery, an Edmonton policeman helps them find a new beginning, but they both must still face their past and choose their futures for themselves.

A fantastic novel that's part Western, part family saga and all well-written!
