Week 3 Lost in an illness

I'm still working on The Book Thief. Allergies turned into a cold and I've been recovering. Also, I re-read Enchantment by Orson Scott Card because I got [bought, stupid me!] the audiobook abridgement and I needed to get the bad taste out of my mouth /ears /head. I love the book, but the abridgement is an evil waste. It's not even cut well: things happen / are referred to later in the audio that were cut from earlier, and if the audio was one's only exposure to this book, it would have soured the person from ever reading the actual pages and have completely misled the reader about the quality and enjoyment of the book.
