Amongst others! I actually haven't read her yet, I'm not through the intro to Women w/ Wolves yet!

Hey, just wondering if we have any other people here that make an effort to read, or even hae just happened to read, a little bit of women's studies? This is probably one of the only kind of non-fiction I read, and would love to discuss it with someone.

I finished this about an hour ago, and was actually suprised with how much I enjoyed it. Found it reminded me VERY strongly of The Joy Luck Club, but it had been long enough since I read it that it didn't really bother me. very mild spoiler really interesting to see, as it's not often...

I'm going through a library phase of my life, and very rarely actually browse the stacks preferring to just request the books I'm interested be sent to my closest branch. that being said, there's always such satisfaction is getting a copy of a book from the library that you can just TELL hasn't...

The Chrysalids by John Wyndam and Blindness by Jose Saramago?

Thanks for posting this, I got fed up with Bookseller about half way through and have been avoiding The Kite Runner because of that. It's sitting on my bookshelf right now though.

Sarah Water's The Night Watch is still one of my favourite books of the year. It was beautiful.

I ADORE Utah, I saw him this weekend too! It was the Regina Folk Festival (oldest fest in Western Canada). Ani has been one of my favourite musicians since I was 15, so to finally see her live was a HUGE milestone.

my Wife and I along with our two cats rent a small two bedroom apartment in the south end of regina. hoping to buy a condo soon though!

Thanks Stewart, I'll definately check them out. Niyaz was a total treat, I almost didn't go Saturday night but definately fell in love with them. Diruba by them is my song on myspace

first of all :eek: :( :mad: :eek: I'm SO jealous!!!!!!! I love Jason, and I've been listening to him since well before he was cool. so, the Regina FOlk Festival was this weekend and I got to see: Leroy Young (spoken word from Belize), Lazerblade (local band) Beadouin Soundclash...

you'd probably like her earlier and older stuff then, check out Revelling/Reckoning.

I saw Ani DiFranco on Friday and am seeing Feist and Utah Phillips tonight. There's been about 10 smaller ones since Friday as it's folk festival here, but they don't really count.

don't know if anyone here is a fan but i am and I saw her live last night for the first time after loving her for ten years and thought I'd post a link to my photos in case anyone is interested. http://ca.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/a_sagin/my_photos ok, and I'm also insanely happy that I saw...

The Nobel isn't really awarded for a specific book but for the author's body of work in general. I think. Thats what everything I read has told me, but I might be mistaken.

At home in bed (I usually move between on my tummy and sitting up every couple of chapters) or on the couch. Can't read in public because I'm a serial people watcher and they are always more interesting that whatever I'm reading.

I reread Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver at least twice a year. Also I read The Devil Wears Prada once in a while because it takes me like two hours and it's a cute book. I find lately I re-read less than I used to too though.

But Cher REALLY MEANS IT this time :)

Stewart, be nice ;) (kidding) Welcome Tolstoy. I don't mind if you can't spell, as long as you try and dnt use txt spk I'm ok with it!! I think you'll find though that if you spend enough times on the boards you're spelling will gradually start to improve itself.
