I won't let it affect my decision to read the book. However, there are going to be some people who use their money and celebrity for causes that I find morally repugnant (aka anti-gay marriage people) I would not buy those books first hand because I don't want to put money in the author's pocket.
I probably learn something, or make a new connection, or spark a new interest in almost everything I read, even the silly crime novels and chic lit.
the book I'm reading now, A Fraction of the Whole, is making me look at Australia in a different way. As I had previously never read much on it...
Kwitel, it sounds like a family saga is kind of what you're looking for, I LOVED Price of Tides! Try The Way the Crow Flies or Fall on Your Knees by Anne-Marie MacDonald, or maybe Of Bees and Mist by Eric Seitwan
The moment I realized I needed to be single was when, about 3 1/2 years ago I woke up and realized my partner had forced me to get rid of almost all of my books. She's gone. Unfortunately so are most of my books as I woke up too late :( They live at the library now. I visit them once in a...

I am usually in the middle of a few. Generally one literary fiction type book, a non fiction, some brain candy in the form of chic lit or a thriller, the occasionally a classic as well. currently I'm reading Life of Pi, The World Without Us, Anna Karenina and The Alexandria Link.
However...
You won't regret reading Blindness. It's completely amazing. I heard not great things about Blood Meridian on a CBC Radio show about McCarthy's The Road, so be sure to let us know what you think of it.
I have only read Time Traveler's Wife but it was one of my top reads of last year. I insanely loved it and gave it to like three different people for Christmas. It's SOOO good.
I believe the question was if he had ever found love? Basically, if she's written about Dumbledore believing he was gay she can either skirt the issue or tell the truth. if she's written the entire series believing he was straight and had answered to that effect no one would care.
