#1 Re-reading my favorite novel.

"The woman you love is a girl who dresses as a boy and she lives in a village in a jungle, the name of which you are not allowed to know, not that knowing the name would be particularly helpful in trying to find it.  The woman you love puts her gun beside a blue gravy boat at night so that you can teach her to read.  She came into your life through an air-conditioner vent and how she will leave is the question that keeps you awake in the few free moments you have to sleep."

  Ann Patchett Bel Canto
