Another new author

In my amazon goodies I also had a book by Lorrie Moore titled "A Gate at the Stairs." Not sure if I will ever purposely read her again but it was thoughtful read which covered everything from religion, war, class and race. Tassie Keltjin, the daughter of a gentleman farmer, has come to a university town as a student. When at twenty she takes a job as a part-time nanny for a glamourous and mysterious family, she finds herself drawn deeper into their world and forever changed.

On the countdown to Christmas. Off tomorrow and planning on getting some cooking done and maybe a little cleaning. Still not sure who's coming. Would have been nice to know before we invested in all the food.
