There was an essay in Home Girls about how difficult to read The Salt Eaters was--it made me a little scared to ever read it myself. So I will await your review, whenever you read it, w/curiosity!
I can't even remember if I've read Dogeaters, ha. I read Hagedorn's The Gangster of Love & was like, meh. I think some folks begrudge her being The Face of Filipino-American Lit, but that's not really all (@ all?) her fault.
I got Making Waves off Bookmooch--no, wait, I bought it, but I got the sequel, Making More Waves off Bookmooch. I haven't read either of them yet tho'. ^^;;;
Oh, & I totally would've been anxious for the Dean books to find a home too! I always try & wrack my brain to see if there's anyone I know I can foist them on, heh. @ the Strand they have several copies of Zahrah the Windseeker & every time I go I try to find one of them a home.
