Newly released by Jacqueline Woodson, author of the verse memoir <em>Brown Girl Dreaming<\/em>, it would be obvious even without knowing that that this was written by a poet, with lyrical, yet slightly distant, prose the defining characteristic of the novel thus far.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m listening to a couple of YA novels, as well: David Levithan&#8217;s <em>Boy Meets Boy<\/em>, which sounds like it&#8217;s narrated by Michael Cera (who co-starred in <em>Nick and Norah&#8217;s Infinite Playlist<\/em>, the novel of which was co-written by Levithan) and Tamara Ireland Stone&#8217;s <em>Every Last Word<\/em>, which I just started listening to tonight.<\/p>\n<p>On the knitting front, I&#8217;m into the gusset decreases of this sock, but I&#8217;m debating ripping back some. Whenever I started the heel flap, I accidentally did a single row of slip-stitch heel set up on the instep needle before moving onto the heel stitches. I fixed it tonight, when I went back to knitting in the round, but the half row is tight and I&#8217;m concerned it will be noticeable when worn. I tried it on and didn&#8217;t pick up on it, but I&#8217;d hate to be wrong after the fact. Plus, the sole stitches might be looser than I want on this size of needle. I&#8217;ll make a final decision tomorrow after I&#8217;ve had some sleep and some time away from it.<\/p>\n<hr width=75%>\n<p>Yarning along with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gsheller.com\/2016\/08\/yarn-along-295.html\">Ginny<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After work, volleyball, the garden, and the pool, I decided to head down to the new caf\u00c3\u00a9 near my house that opened a couple weeks ago, Emissary.
