If you're interested in being part of the ad hoc reading group Leah Bloom and I are doing. Today is the official start day. We're reading
The Discreet Hero by Mario Vargas Llosa. Feel free to grab a copy and read along. Again, this is pretty loose, if you finish up by the new year, that's fine, but hopefully it'll be a fun read and you'll have something literary to chat about at holiday parties.
Blue Gargantua, caveat: if it's too depressing, I reserve the right to quit. (I read the first few pages last night and it reminded me of T.C. Boyle and ... This other really depressing book I can't recall the name of.)
ReplyDeleteLeah Bloom Well, I've gotten a little further along. It hasn't seemed depressing, although I'm not sure if this is going to pass the Bechdel test or not.
ReplyDeleteI placed a hold on an ebook copy from the library. If it comes in soon, I read really fast!
