i am reading the coolest book ever right now. i dunno if anyone mentioned this, but if not, everyone must go out and get this book. it's called "the return of modesty" which is like an updated miss manners except sooooooo much better. "the return of modesty" by wendy shalit so far has given me hope for the future. there was a time when i felt alone in this world as a girl until i read this book. basically, at least from what i can tell thus far, the book is about how female liberation has only oppressed the female gender in the long run because now we've given males the ability to have more control of things by being so...open.. it also gives some fresh insights about how modesty isn't all that bad, and girls shouldn't feel 'weird' about being modest. god i love this book, EVERYONE GO GET THIS BOOK. this, ugh..this is the prime example of why i'm glad to be a jew ;) i dunno, i just thought i was always alone about not wanting to discuss my 'girly issues' and apparently i'm not. as for other good books: the geography of nowhere shot in the heart in cold blood the great gatsby and hmm that's all i can think of for now, but i'd like to read the anatomy of love. ok GO GET THIS BOOK. $5 AT BORDERS BABY ;) - amy
