Recently finished this, Clay, I had to read the lot (I will just stop reading if a book doesn't grab me) but then gave it to my DIL and told her to keep it as it's not the sort of book I want to keep and re-read. Like "The Eight" by Kathrine someone-or-other - if she said one more time "little did I know" I was going to scream, but it was a good, fast moving plot, plenty of colour. Favourites - lots, right from The Annotated Alice and The Annotated Snark ( Gardiner's edition of Lewis Carrol with LOTS of annotations) to Umberto Eco - Name of the Rose and Foucalt's Pendulum. "The Eighth day" by Thornton Wilder. "Van Loon's Lives" Just finished re-reading "How Green Was my Valley" recently. "The Shipping News" "Miss Smila's Feeling for Snow (?spelling - on loan to DIL at the moment. only person I lend books too now) Just bought a hard cover collection of Graham Green at a book sale for $6 Aust. "Lifeline" here (do you have that overseas?) has a travelling second hand booksale set up, tours the country with assistance from Rotary with really cheap second hand books. I spent more than I should have on their visit to Cooma last Saturday. Noelene, wondering if the pain of my face after dental treatment is better or worse than the toothache before!
