1208104 Far more social? Not so much; that's Deirdre. I own a bookstore, so have learned to be social within the confines there, and do enjoy that aspect, but beyond that ... closeted awkward hermit. Just ask D. But I have come to enjoy the social interactions at the D&D, so here's to the next drink.

1131430 You were the only person I found who had a negative review of East of Eden. I just finsihed reading it right now and thought it was really bad. I don't get it.

1131430 I thought I was the only one who didn't "get" Fight Club. Choke was only moderately better. And Kundera, LOVE him. I hope more people review your book.
