3. Graphic novel Papergirls 6 I love this series.
4. The World-Famous Ratner's Meatless Cookbook After reading about Judith Ratner's life in My Mother's Kitchen: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and the Meaning of Life I'd like to read the cookbook of the recipes of her family's NYC restaurant. I just can't see spending $25 on a small format paperback from 1991. I hope I find one at an estate sale.
5. Mamushka: Recipes from Ukraine and Eastern Europe by Olia Hercules. I keep checking this out of the library which is a sign I need to own a copy.

1. Snakebite: Lives and Legends of Central Pennsylvania (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5072593-snakebite) - It's not published anymore and I'd like a copy to match Glimm's other book, Flatlanders and Ridgerunners (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2454400.Flatlanders_and_Ridgerunners). The author played a large role in my literary and personal life.

2. Any of the Hogarth Shakespeare Series (https://www.goodreads.com/series/158687) - There are a million books I want to read, but these are books that I must read soon.

4. The Death and Resurrection Show (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1273182.The_Death_And_Resurrection_Show) - It's not being published any longer and I've been wanting to read it for the longest time. The few copies out there are hella expensive.

5. I couldn't want more from this. My husband regularly buys photography and art books for me for Christmas and birthdays and it's awesome. I have a lovely collection. It's mostly shelter dogs and Americana, the two subjects I love the most.
