For me, the weekend included lots of reading for upcoming book reviews, a visit with Dance Kaleidoscope (review to appear
in next week’s IBJ) and screenings of the classic “Mildred Pierce” and the less-than-classic “Horton Hears a Who.”
So what did you do this weekend? Catch Orquesta Bravo at the Jazz Kitchen? Drew Hastings at Crackers? The Peter Shelton show at Herron Gallery?
Speak up. Share.

By the way, if anyone else saw Thursday's performance, did you notice the large group of elderly, French patrons? It was neat to watch a performance about a culture with its own people.
What can I say? I loved Circle Time as a child, too.
Anyway, the book is called SHARP TEETH. It was written by Toby Barlow and it came out last month from Harpercollins. Novels in verse usually just annoy me, but this one is very compelling.
On the surface, it's about werewolves in Los Angeles, and it is not for the faint-at-heart, but it is also about love, friendship, community...all that good stuff. I have been suggesting it to every horror fan I know, but also to lots of other people.
It will make you look at both your dog and your lover differently.
I also wanted to mention that I finished reading ONE HELLUVA RIDE: HOW NASCAR SWEPT THE NATION, by Liz Clarke (Villard, 2008). I think I mentioned this book a couple Mondays ago. It, too, is a very engaging read. I think that racing fans will enjoy it, but also Indy residents who, like me, have been wondering what all the fuss is about.
I cried when I read about Dale Earnhardt's death.

Now there's an idea -- Circle Time on Monument Circle in the Circle City every Monday. That would be a great way to start the week.
