I gave up on Apart From Love even thought it had been given to me to review. I couldn't turn one more page. So I've bounced back to a good ol' standby genre to cleanse my palate with The House at Sea's End.


I enjoyed it, but I didn't love it. It's quite ethereal and very descriptive. If you like a plot driven book, you won't find it here. I was disappointed with the ending.

I adored it, Emily, but I was in a non-plot-driven-book mood when I read it.
I just finished East of Eden. Loved it. Want to read next something good and long and generational. Before this I read this year both 1Q84 and Toss of a Lemon.
Maybe I'll try again the Indian series Lg recommended a few years ago.

Yes it was. I want to reread Go Ask Alice.

Lately I've been reading through my nonfiction books from the library quite hastily, and then renewing them so I can reread them. Because I've already forgotten 30% of what was in them.


It was very good, surprisingly good even; you should move it up the pile.
I'm doing a quick reread of Piano Notes: The World of the Pianist before it goes back to the libarry.


I adore Joyce Carol Oates, especially "We Were the Mulvaneys."


Not sure what's up next on the queue for me. I feel certain it will be less strange.

that will definitely keep you busy! 30 hours is a lot for listening to a book. I usually max out around 14. Let us know how it goes.



I just started The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. So far I am enjoying it. I haven't seen the just released movie, yet.


I'm currently reading The Lost City of Z: A Tale of Deadly Obsession in the Amazon. So far (about 1/3 into it), it's really fantastic. I'm hooked.


I am doing exactly the same thing! I downloaded all 5 books and now having been reading book 2 for a week I am 19% in (on my kindle). Loving the writing and the story but starting to feel that slight restlessness wondering about all those other books I could be reading...
