So I just finished the book The Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs. It took a while to read it since I did not bring it with me to school. It was a great book! If you don’t knit, it makes you want to knit; and if you do knit, it makes you want to knit right then and there! The Friday Night Knitting Club is about a single mother who opens up a knitting shop in New York. One day a knitting club was formed from some of the regulars that go to the store and you get to know all of these ladies who are real characters! This book is kinda chick-flick-y so I’m sure you men aren’t going to run out and read it; but ladies, I think you should!

Now I am going to start to read a book that I found at an antique store called The Barbary Coast, an Informal History of the San Francisco Underworld, by Herbert Asbury. This book was copyrighted in 1933!! I paged though it and it looks like it will be humorous since there are pictures of what “hoodlums and slummers” dressed, which now-a-days would be on the dressy side. Should be a good one!
