Some people say if you like The Help you would like

Riona (rionafaith) | 488 comments I've started Blackout (All Clear, #1). It's been a while since I've read a Connie Willis novel and I'd forgotten how funny her writing can be.

Cynthia Paschen | 7333 comments I'm loving "Prince of Tides," by Pat Conroy.


message 3159: by Félix (new)

Félix (habitseven) I enjoyed that one, too, Cyn. I just finished Kingsolver's latest, and will attempt to pen a review later today.

Bibliophile | 125 comments I'm about to read Eutopia: A Novel of Terrible Optimism. The creepy girl on the cover is enough to make me want to lock my door and settle down for some holiday horror.

Amy Neftzger (neftzger) | 304 comments Started Infinite Jest - first book by David Foster Wallace that I've read.

I'm currently reading Game of Thrones. Last night I dreamt I was Laura Prepon and was in a fencing match with Liz Taylor.

Was it a young Liz Taylor or an old one? How did you fair? I need to be properly prepared in case you interlope in one of my dreams.


message 3168: by Charlotte (new)

Charlotte Creech | 100 comments Young Liz. I think I won. I usually blame odd dreams on chicken, but I'm attributing this one to the book!

message 3170: by Susan (last edited Dec 29, 2012 03:02PM) (new)

Susan | 6406 comments I am reading The League for the Suppression of Celery which was a free download. It is alright so far but there is a chapter called something like, "Getting the fuck out of Utah", which makes me laugh and think of Phil.


message 3171: by Félix (new)

Félix (habitseven) Same here.

Susan | 6406 comments Isn't FeLarryix the epitome of laconic?

I liked this one, but it did take me about 50 pages to get into the story. I generally like Gaiman's books, though.

WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

No, I'm serious. What does it mean?


message 3176: by Susan (last edited Dec 29, 2012 08:16PM) (new)

Susan | 6406 comments You, FeLarryix, are the very embodiment of expressing much with few words.


message 3177: by Félix (new)

Félix (habitseven) Thanks.


message 3178: by Susan (new)

Susan | 6406 comments You're welcome.


message 3179: by Susan (new)

Susan | 6406 comments I am envious of the talent because I am the exact opposite. I express little with too many words.


message 3180: by Cynthia (new)

Cynthia Paschen | 7333 comments Yup.


message 3181: by Félix (new)

Félix (habitseven) heh

How did you like White Oleander?


message 3184: by Susan (new)

That book looks very good, Lobstergirl. Is it interesting?"


Moderately so. It is quite fascinating to find out what these men of another era were like. In so many ways they're more similar to us today than different. Yet I feel the author's style could be a little more engaging. I feel like I'm skittering above a bunch of data rather than being drawn into a narrative.


message 3197: by Riona (new)

Riona (rionafaith) | 488 comments I think I'm going to start on I Am Not Myself These Days: A Memoir next.


message 3198: by Susan (new)
