Haven't read every book written (obviously!), but I do read every single book that I buy and thus have read every book on my bookshelves. Otherwise, what's the point of buying them?

Thanks! :-D

I read this book a few weeks ago and I really liked it, too. I have to say, I do agree with your friends that Tony was a little irritating, but I'd have to put Charis in that category, as well. I love Margaret Atwood but I feel as though she fell into the trap of stereotyping her characters and...

I've just finally gotten my hands on this book and started it last night. I do tend to be put off by knowing that a book's on Oprah's list, but I won't avoid it because of that (and I did love Middlesex, too, as well as I Know This Much is True!). Anyway, this was on Amazon's top lists for a...

Most recently, I Know This Much is True by Wally Lamb, about the sane identical twin of a schizophrenic man. Its 900+ pages kept me glued to it for an entire weekend. Then again, I am a psychology nerd at heart -- went to school for it :)

The only book of his that I've read is Up Country. For what it is, an adventure book, I really enjoyed it. It had suspense and action and all that, and it kept me turning the pages. But at the same time, I wouldn't put it in my favorites list. The love subplot was predictable to me, and I didn't...

Hi everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. I've been on another book forum for a while and have gotten really bored with the lack of participation and discussion on it. I've just found this forum and it looks pretty awesome so I'm excited about that :) I've been a big reader my whole life...
