Which LIST book did you just start?

If you are a fan of audiobooks (or even if you aren't!) look for the version narrated by Jeremy Irons; it is amazing. His voice might pull you through the "slow" bits -- so wonderful, poetic and so creepy!

I'm also reading Nightwood for my bp group read.

The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle is a great book. Worth the while. Hope you enjoy it.


Don Quixote
Another classic I've always intended to read!"
Wow!!! I'm so JEALOUS!!! I read this long ago before I started on the lists, and it is absolutely my favourite book of all time. I've read it several times since, but wish I still had the thrill of that first time! It's very Monty Python styled humour in my opinion! x

Starting Caim by José Saramago and halfway through Buddenbrooks: The Decline of a Family by Thomas Mann


The Book of Evidence
I like Banville, so I expect to enjoy this one. It certainly draws you in with the first page!

Delicious sci-fi about food, future and famine."
On my TBR list too, but I didn't think it was a list book, unfortunately.

I thought it was on the list, too, but I just checked and couldn't find it. We might be confusing it with Murakami's Wind-up bird chronicle...


Good luck to you. May you hate it less than I did."
