    Kiran Desai: The Inheritance Of Loss

    Raise your hand if you can't believe this thing won the Booker. *raises hand* holy crap. I finished this a few weeks ago by about page 150 I realized that I was only reading in the hopes that it would be good.

    Memoirs ~ Have you read my recently purchased?

    John Grisham

    My favourite Grisham is still A Time To Kill (though that might be because the movie features my boyfriend all sweaty and passionate*) though I really liked The Street Lawyer too. *note* Yes, I am well aware that I am in fact a lesbian. For Matthew, and ONLY for Matthew, I'd reconsider.
