Thank you for the insight. :) I recently attended the author's reading for her other book (Room) and one member of the audience mentioned it. The way Emma Donoghue described it intrigued me, and I've been liking historical fiction a lot lately.


an amazing book. keep tissues at hand, your gonna need them.

Rules of Civility by Amor Towles
I am also looking forward to try something written by Octavia Butler (SF-Fantasy)
Another genre I love is what my friends and I call non genre. Books that you cannot really place in a genre.
I have too many books and too little time.

My daughter just finished the first book. Finally she gave it a try and she kept on reading The Hunger Games. I knew she would love it. Enjoy!




My daughter finished Last Breath last month and is currently reading Forbidden - small world. I need to read Last Breath myself, she wants to talk about the book.




And then back to the pile of books from the Borders' closing.
