Just finished The Spellman's Strike Again by Lisa Lutz. Better than the last one. The one after this -- it's a series -- i heard was a big let down, so i hesitate to invest.
It's about a neurotic family of Private Investigators, and it's set in San Francisco. |

I actually picked this book up today while I was at the mall. My friend told me, with a giggle, that I should read it. I read the reviews before purchasing, so I am not overly excited about reading it. I read that the writing is horrible. I am more curious about the BUZZ all around it.
I'll let you know my thoughts in a couple days!  Quote:

I just finished J.R.Ward's new book, Lover Reborn. Yes I like those vampire books. Escapist fantasy. I don't know what I'll pick up next. I've also been reading S.M. Stirling's The Change series. This one is a very good read. Enjoy everyone.

Halfway through "Under The Never Sky" by Veronica Rossi and loving it! (thanks for the recommendation!)
I like reading a lot, but am immensely into this dystopic/sci-fi fiction right now. Any other recommendations? I've read AngelFall by Susan Ee and Divergent, both excitingly different and excellent. Please, recommend away!

at first i was incredulous that someone (a brain scientist none the less) suffering a stroke and losing "pathways" to so many things would retain this experience with so much detail but the book won me over i couldn't put it down very information packed and still accessible reading plus fascinating is right thanks for sharing this find i now have a completely different outlook on the childhood times i shared with my stroke affected grandma |

wow, i just realized it's been awhile since i've posted in here
my reading has slowed down a bit the last few weeks...lately i've still been working through 'sex & disability'... started reading 'health at every size' and i'm halfway through 'the time traveler's wife' (borrowed it from my sis yesterday - i read half of it in the dr's office, that visit took like 5 hours yesterday, but it feels a bit like it's dragging to me so i don't know how long it'll take me to finish) i've also been rereading 'the good and beautiful life' off and on for the third or fourth time. |

okay, i made it halfway through the time traveler's wife on friday and i can't finish it. it's boring me to death. i don't understand why people love this book so much. i want to finish because maybe something magical happens in the second half (and my conscience will nag me if i stop) but...i just can't get into it. the writing is really pretty but that's not enough to sustain 500+ pages.
