Which LIST book did you just finish? Showing 7,901-7,922 of 7,922

[Karina]

Just finished Rebecca. I really enjoyed it!

[Ellen]

Catch-22. Hilarity at its finest!

[Stephanie "Jedigal"]

Orwell's Burmese Days. Had previously only read his ever-assigned-in-school Animal Farm and 1984. Didn't have any expectations, but still was pleasantly 'surprised'. I now expect to enjoy his other two list entries.

[Ellinor]

Just finished The Castle of Otranto. Definitely not the best book on this list.

[Elizabeth (Alaska)]

Last night I finished The Reader. So much unfulfilled potential.

[M]

Just finished the first two volumes of In Search of Lost Time, Swann's Way and In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower.

You can read my review here.

The Singapore Grip - Farrell

Very good historical fiction of the WWII period in Asia.

The Singapore Grip

[Ellinor]

Just finished Life of a Good-for-nothing. Really good for a novel from the Romanticism which is not my favourite literary epoch.

[Charity]

Just finished A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving.

[Stephanie "Jedigal"]

Tim O'Brien The Things They Carried
Dickens A Tale of Two Cities
both excellent!

[Jonpaul]

"Things: A Story of the Sixties" by Georges Perec. It could almost as easily have been written today. Terrific and uncomfortable reading.

[Nicole]

"terrific and uncomfortable" ... awesome

[Joel]

i just finished Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift

[Judith]

Sister Carrie - Dreiser* (reread)

The Old Man and the Sea, Hemingway.
Meh. Fast easy read, didn't 'float my boat' (groan, I know :o) but I can wee what critics found to like. Still, I say ***.

[Jonpaul]

"A Man Asleep" by Georges Perec. A short read about depression and isolation. It goes well with cake and cigarettes.

[Wendy]

I just finished This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen. It was incredibly disturbing. My attempt at a review can be found here.

[Ellinor]

Finished The Turn of the Screw. It was quite scary as I'd hoped it to be.

[Brooke]

I know this is not the topic, but I just read that author Tom Clancy has died. He was 66. He was a great writer.

[Judith]

Troubles - Farrell
Troubles

Good read and quite funny!

[Aileen]

The Little Prince - Antoine de Saint-Exupery. Lovely short tale. 5/5
