Absolutely Amazing

I am a huge fan of Annette LaPointes. Her gift for words is amazing. Everything is subtle and understated, but lyrical in its own way. This is one of my favorite examples: Tim is only tangentially her friend. They intersected in Saskatoon's geek network. It's a layer of the city Rowan doesn't often get to see; he missed it by skipping university. All the engineers, a cross-section of the computer guys, and their girlfriends and exes and gaming partners have locked into their own tribe. They're producing strange kids at an alarming rate, but none of them are stupid. I bought this book last year and have reread it several times. If you aren't threatened by descriptions of alternative lifestyles I would highly recommend this book.
