77 Days of the National Book Award

This is an interesting blog to follow, because it is following the 1950-60 era. I was in my teens and early 20's at the time. It is "funny" how many books I do not recoginze/remember from that time period, even though I have always been a lover of books. I guess most of it stems from the place where I lived. A very small town in Central Florida. And my mama was my English teacher, who was raised mostly by a step-mother in Puritan New England. Actually she graduated from Winter Garden High School, and attneded FSCW. But I imagine her step-mother and Father brought along their Puritan ways when they moved to Florida.
