When I copied and pasted my list from Word into the post box, the links were not activated so I posted my list on my blog. The link below will take you to my list. my blog

Sorry about that! It works now, I had to change my URL and I forgot that I had to change this link.

Great

Nice list. Fun to make, isn't it. Of course more ideas will constantly arise. I like the looks of the Craig Ferguson book. He's good. So I added it---not so much for this challenge but for a comic break.

It was very fun to make. Thanks for checking it out.

Which is the Craig Ferguson? No authors on your list.

It's the first book under Scotland. Between the Bridge and the River. I saw it recently when I was working at the library I work for. It looked interesting.

Thanks. I'll check it out.

He's the host of one of the late night shows, on at 12:30AM here on the east coast. Very quirky sense of humor.

Yeah! I like watching his show, he's very funny ;)

I mentioned on my blog that I would also like to add the Harafish book to my list. I'm excited for the group read!

Excellent list, Brittany.

Thank you!

I'm now reading The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy.

That's a good list.

Thanks Chel!

Interested to know how it goes. I've picked it up twice and just couldn't push through though I really want to read it!

That is a difficult book Mikki, but I found it ultimately worth it.

I really like it so far. It was a bit difficult to get into because I was confused by the lack of information at first, but I'm not confused anymore...

That seems to be the general consensus! Must try again. :)

Glad you're enjoying, Brittany, I probably should have just pushed through the beginning where it gave me problems too.

Some of the writing is really beautiful from what I remember. But parts of the book are difficult. I'd suggest giving it a try if you didn't hate it Mikki.

One of my favorites--it's definitely worth another try.

I finished Che Guevara for Argentina.
