Thank you Lisa and Cherylann. These are fabulous. Lisa, do you ever sleep? You are so busy on this and other blogs and your reading is so massive, I don't see how you do it. I am retired and read a great deal, but nothing compares to your book list knowledge...and long term memory about what you have read in the past! I am impressed and awed.

South of Broad I am just about finished with this book and I am really enjoying it. It reminds me of Thomas Wolff's "Bonfire of the Vanities". Does anyone else see the similarities or has my ancient memory failed me again? ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/181700-june-july-discussion-on-cutting-for-stone-spoilers Lynn made a comment in the Bookmarks Subscribers group:

I have often been called "weird" because I have so little "fear" of death. I don't know where it comes from but I clearly see dying and death as another part of life. Even though I am approaching the later years of my life (I'm 65)and feeling more unhappy about the less life that is left, I do not experience it as fear. I agree with Betsy that the American expectations and deification of the medical profession are contributing to the fear on rationing of health care. None of us want to be the one that won't be served, but surely if we don't do something to change our overall life styles as a nation, rationing will be a necessity. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/154093-june-july-cutting-for-stone Lynn made a comment in the Bookmarks Subscribers group:

One of the questions I would like to ask of the group: How did you react to the "Christian religious overtones" in the story? Did they add or distract from the story and/or lessons? ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/19475-how-do-you-get-your-bookmarks-fix Lynnvoted on the poll:How do you get your Bookmarks fix? ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/174996-little-bee-chris-cleave Lynn made a comment in the Bookmarks Subscribers group:

I read it a month or so, just after it came out. It's a way better than average book, but not great. Excellent development of the characters and why they are the who they are! One of those you don't know whether or not to recommend to others. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/60778298 Doghead (Hardcover) by Morten Ramsland
