Presidential Reading

The Obama family has returned to Washington after its vacation on Martha's Vineyard. I can't imagine, what with time out to speak at Senator Kennedy's funeral, that the president was able to make much of a dent in his vacation reading.

Here's his list:

Friedman, Thomas L. Hot, Flat, and Crowded: Why We Need a Green Revolution--And How It Can Renew America. [320.58 FRI]

Haruf, Kent. Plainsong. [F HAR]

McCullough, David G. John Adams. [B ADA]

Pelecanos, George P. The Way Home. [F PEL]

Price, Richard. Lush Life. [F PRI]

As you can see, we own all of the titles, so come down and borrow one or more and you can compare book notes with President Obama the next time he invites over to his house!
