Hey ya'll!
I need help. I need a book to read. When I went to Idaho a couple weeks ago, I brought Barbara Kingsolver's Poisonwood Bible with me to read. I was so busy that I never cracked it open and then I left it at my parent's house when I left for home again! It's a shame, too, because I was just starting to get into the book. It had taken me a while, too, because I when I started it, I just come off a lingering book high from reading Gabriel Garcia Marquez' books Love in the Time of Cholera and One Hundred Years of Solitude. Both those books are the kind of books you hope will never end, because you never want to be done reading them because they're so damn good. Then I opened Kingsolver's book and it was good, but just so different in style. And then, right as I was beginning to settle down with it, I lost it. My family will probably be sending the book by post soon, so I'll refrain from buying another copy. In the interim...
I need book suggestions.
Ready? Set....? SUGGEST!
