What I'm Reading Now -- Sugar In My Bowl

A woman came into my bookstore a few weeks ago looking for Sugar In My Bowl.  I had never heard of the book, but I'm liking short stories and essays lately, I think because I've been so busy.  I figured I'd take a crack at this one.  Hopefully I'll have better luck with it than I did with Nathan Englander, my last attempt at book reading.

The title comes from a Nina Simone song, "I Want a Little Sugar in My Bowl."
