[Donella]

All's Quiet on the Western Front by Remarque

[Alice]

Portnoy’s Complaint by Philip Roth

[Nocturnalux]

Sean wrote: "Brian wrote: "Invisible Man"

Which one?"

I think Brian meant Ralph Ellison's book as Wells' has a definite article:
Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison
The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells

Meanwhile I just picked up Diderot's Jacques and what a crazy ride it's been. I am getting Don Quixote vibes, it's great fun.

must be awesome, that one!"

It's top 'o my list! I have it on hold at the library. Been weeks and weeks and weeks and I'm still #2. So it'll be a bit longer, but soon... soon...

[Sean]

I just started Labyrinths: Selected Stories and Other Writings by Jorge Luis Borges. Many of the stories are the same as the ones in Ficciones but I don't mind rereading them as they were fascinating.

[George P.]

Amanda wrote: "The Golden Bowl by Henry James. I regret it."

I swore off Henry James for life after one book- The Turn of the Screw. I couldn't think of the title and had to look it up in my notes.

[Bryan--The Bee’s Knees]

Don't tease us George! What was the book?

[George P.]

I forgot to post that I started War and Peace (Tolstoy) almost 3 weeks ago. I vowed to start it when I retired, which I did at the end of the year. At my current rate it will take me about 4 months; I'm reading others simultaneously. Still working on Germinal, (which isn't short either).

[Brian]

For Whom the Bell Tolls by Earnest Hemingway

This is my third book by Hemingway that is on the list. The others were The Old Man and the Sea and A Farewell to Arms. Both of which were quite enjoyable.

[Joy D]

I am currently reading Light in August by William Faulkner

[Sean]

A graphic novel huh? Not something I ever got into. This will be a fun little departure into something new as I begin Watchmen by Alan Moore.
