I was perusing the bookshelf, recently, along with Brian's neat little app for checking the library's catalog and really appreciate that he created that. I'm thinking about reading something by Nick Cave, now. Of course, it will be a few months before I finish and recover from 2666.
Yes, Brian's handy little app is resulting in me getting a little out of control with my hold list again. I'm hovering closer and closer to 25...
I can't believe how many of you want to read Nick Cave books after the glowing reviews I gave them. Y'all are a bunch of sadists. :)

Another outcome of our book group- I've recommended lots of kids and teen and even adult books based on people's book talks during our meetings without having actually read the books. Not sure if that's good or bad, but it's an interesting thing to think about. I usually preface my recommendation with "I just heard about this book from a friend..."

Brian, I showed Cleo the Dissection book, and she immediately checked it out. She's a strange girl.
