I'm 50, live in Austin, Texas but am a Northern California native and my heart still belongs there. I spend a lot of my time quilting, cooking, reading and working on my house. I've been keeping track for about ten years of all the books that I read. I had been writing comments but life got in the way and I need to start doing that again.

Half Broke Horses by Jeanette Walls

This is the second book from Jeanette Walls that is about her family. The first one I read last year and was excellent. This book she writes from her great grandmothers perspective of being a woman in Texas who runs a cattle ranch with her husband in Arizona and the raising of children in the depression. Really good read, is non fiction but based on accounts from family archives so almost falls into the fiction category.
