394652 I thought The Glass Castle was okay...compelling at times, but too difficult to stomach at others, and I found the author oddly cold...but still worth reading.

I loved loved loved Pillars of the Earth! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

404096 Well, I'm not reading anything right now...So, that's not up....I have a lovely migraine today. Maybe it's all that snark. I need to cut back to just a snark a day. ;)

What have you read that's good lately?

401699 Are you reading Pillars yet? I'm about two thirds through, if you're having a hard time getting into it (like I did), stick with it, it gets better. :)

394652 Just thought I'd creep around for a bit. Thought you needed a dose of the heeby jeebies.

P.S. Marry me.
P.P.S. Or else.

402159 i still think it is funny that i am in a book club in my little box on my desk, but i agree - it is a nice distraction from the myspazzy club in my little box on my desk.

*big smile*

hello to you too!

404096 I think we may need to stage an intervention - you clearly do have an book addiction. Are you going to be reading at the rumble??? ;)

394652 Dammit Char!

You are the 12th most popular reader on GoodReads this week. I'm 22nd.

You just had to beat me. Had to.

And no, I'm not competitive. I don't pay attention to stuff like that. It was just an observation.

P.S. Watch your back.

406075 Great. Another addiction. Thanks a lot!

401699 I guess I'm really NOT accustomed to thinking. I just figured out why it was giving me such a headache-- I was clicking on the individual title, etc. to add instead of just rating with stars. Duh.

401699 Actually, this is fun, but I'm not accustomed to thinking so much and it's giving me a headache. :P
