Book Bridges discussion

I finally finished Knight's Hill. It was a slow read but glad I read it. Now I go back to books that I hope to finish within a few days. There are a lot of books on my shelf to read and still I keep picking them up wherever I go. Recently found a copy of Go Tell It On The Mountain by James Baldwin so I am giving that a go now. It is the first thing of his I have read.

I took a break from The Girl Who Plays with Fire to read Little Bee. Had to go back 50 pages to remember what was going on.....

That is good information. When I start those books I will do it when I have the time to read through. I get pulled a lot of ways now with books to read but it is happy confusion. I am so glad to be doing goodreads, and not just for the club reading. I am making wonderful friends.

Started The Story of Edgar Sawtellelast night...it is so good. Had a hard time putting it down and turning off the light.

I have been debating whether to read this book or not and if you really like it I may have to pass on it. Does it have a plot?

I am laughing....yes it has a plot and I am afraid it is going to be a sad dog story....right now it is teaching me about dog breeders and how detailed their paperwork must be...I'll keep you posted...

I just started reading George W Bush's new book. It doesn't really have a plot and I know how it ends but so far it is pretty good.

That is on my list, too. Glad you are enjoying it. Did you get it on Kindle?

Yes so I can't share it. It has alot of pictures and some video which won't come across my kindle.

Hmmmm...can't wait for Christmas so I can start using mine....

I picked up the George Bush book but don't know when I will get to it. If anyone wants to borrow it we can do that. I am still pondering the kindle. So far the dictionary feature is a big plus. Seems also the portablility to make it easy to use in a waiting room or whatever, and the larger print means not taking that second pair of glasses. I think as soon as I convince myself that I am not "giving up books" and this is a complement to that I will go for it. Thanks to those who have helped me understand the pros and cons.

Just finished Edgar Sawtelle....it got very descriptive even for my taste....great story but depressing.

Just started A Reliable Wifelast night...so far, so good..

A Reliable Wife was enjoyable. Reading Beat the Reaper now. The language is raunchy and the author uses footnotes to throw in crazy trivia and comedy...
