I finished _Kitty and the Midnight Hour_ by Carrie Vaughn. IThen I finished _Kitty Goes to Washington_, and now I'm reading _Kitty Takes a Holiday_. They're amusing and very relaxing.

I've also started _Make Your Home Among Strangers_ by Jennine Capo Crucet. It's a book that wouldn't normally have appeared on my radar, but about a week ago there was a story in the Chronicle of Higher Education. Apparently some special snowflake students at a Georgia public college (I forget which one) had a book burning. The book is required reading for all entering freshmen, and it's part of their cultural diversity program. Some white students took the whole white privilege idea wrong, as some usually do. Well, just say "book burning" and it makes me want to read the book. It's a YA novel about a Cuban American college student and her experiences attending a prestigious and mostly white college. I'm looking forward to it.
