A Complicated Kindness
So, Christmas is over, New Year's is over and everything is slowly getting back to normal again.
As with the routine starting up, so is my daily reading on the bus increasing. I have finished yet another book that I borrowed from Steph.
Now I can start reading all my new books that Santa gave me this year.
I just finished reading A Complicated Kindness by Miriam Toews where Nomi is trying to survive in a Mennonite community.
Her older sister and her mother had already left the town because they didn't fit in and knew that wasn't the life for them.
Nomi is still at home finishing high school trying to figure out why her family left her with her father, an avid follower, as she determines who she is and who she can become - either by staying in the town or by getting away from it all like her mother and her sister.
The next book is Emma

Hmmmm...I read that book but I can't seem to remember it...I think something shocking happens in it...did something shocking happen in it?
The only shocking thing I can remember is Nomi being left alone with a new car and note from her father saying giving her instructions on how to sell their house.
