As for Junot Diaz - he might just be my favorite writer at the moment. Oscar Wao was the most inspiring book I've read in years and I should probably have blogged about it as emotional reading. It wasn't just emotional, it completely blew my mind - so funny, thoughful, educational (never heard of El Jefe before), and so intruiging. I'll definitely try to make his reading although if it's free it might be jam packed two hours before starting - I think he's developed quite a following
