Good selections on the list so far. I loved Reading Lolita in Tehran - it really says something about how readers and thinkers can exist in difficult circumstances. I hope you like it

Will be reading Life Of Pi soon. I'd love to know what you thought.

I haven't read it yet, but I am pretty excited. I am determined to read the book before I see the movie. When do you plan on starting?

[Jack]

Maybe next month. I hope it lives up to my expectations.
