The House You Pass on the Way by Jacqueline Woodson

Felix

Of Kinkajous, Capybaras, Horned Beetles, Seladangs, And The Oddest And Most Wonderful Mammals, Insects, Birds, And Plants Of Our World. It's a layman-friendly collection of small chunks of info about various animals and stuff. It's fun.

Before that I read David Sedaris's Christmas book. I'm still waiting on the Murakami.

The Barbarian Nurseries by Hector Tobar  -  This one's for le college. It's good so far, but then again I'm not very far.

I just finished Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom, which was one of the most emotional books I've read. I really think that it's helped me get a new perspective in my life. It truly is a very good read.

I'm a little sad the title has changed, I had a fondness for the old one.
I have just finished a biography on Richard Savage, which I very much enjoyed and am now looking for something else to grab my attention.

"Sex & Stravinsky" by Barbara Trapido, after having finished "The last Tycoon" by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

The latter as close to good chick-lit as it will get ... for any male author :)

The old title was "Books your now reading."  Given the literary nature of the topic, we thought an edit, after several years, was in order.

You are free to title your own posts howsoever you wish.  I see that you have done so.  I admire your rugged individuality.  :eusa_clap:

Yes, the problem dated back to the original post in January 2009.  A member stated that she might be forced to remove her eyes with a hot poker if she had to look at that title any longer.

Out of sheer sympathy, we made the change to something more palatable to the litterati and intellectuals who frequent the topic.
