Light boxes by Shane Jones
I read Lighboxes for our June meetup book club. This book was challenging to read because it is all over the place. Some chapters are a word, a list, or a paragraph while others are more within the normal realms of a typical chapters. This story is also told through several people, although they are normally referenced in the third person. One person in the book club thought it was more like a poem than a book, part of this might be because Shane Jones normally writes poetry. This story is about a town who is stuck in the month of February and their attempts to break free. Again, another book that I could totally relate too. Although Seattle is not that cold this spring was very dreary and overcast most days, YUCK! Although I didn't necessarily enjoy reading this book, I did find it interesting and got through it quickly.
