Very fleeting - Book Bingo Update

It's practically the end of July and my last post was a quick bunch of links relating to housiversary in mid-June. I'm continuing my trend of not really writing anything here and yet pretending not to have dropped blogging entirely--god knows why. But on looking at my in-progress summer reading bingo card earlier this evening, I observed to Scott that I seemed to be doing my best to fill as many squares as possible without getting a bingo. I share the evidence here:



I have plans for some of the remaining squares (I swear that I am starting Silent Spring for the "environment" square tomorrow and that one of these days I'll get a copy of Jonathan Evison's Lawn Boy for "local author") but many of them (author or character with a disability, history . . . ) are still TBD. I welcome suggestions.

 Thus far, Wolf Hollow, Jane Eyre, and Diary of a Provincial Lady have been my favorites. Death at the Chateau Bremont has possibly edged out Notes of a Crocodile for least engaging while The Only Story, Warlight, and A Fairly Good Time are fighting it out for most forgettable.
