She really, really likes black beans!

Halfway through and it's getting a bit saggy and uninteresting. It started so strong but seems to have lost its mystery (for me). Anyone else find there to be a saggy middle in this novel?

I'm having a hard time grasping the meaning of these incredible poems. Lots of words that I think I understand their meaning. So after looking up a few of these words, "antiphon" "balefire" "elegy" I decided to just let the poems wash over me like rain and not concern myself with meaning. Two minutes later I'm googling another word I think I might know. Haha.

I returned this to the library unfinished. I may try it again later. I got about half way through. :P

Poetry that is thoroughly modern with a sardonic edge. So far...

70 % in. Such a great story. Very tense.

I'm on page 70 of 262 pages. Fascinating read so far. Not something I would've grabbed off the bookshelf but that is why getting books as gifts is so intriguing and eye opening.

I cannot find this book. We moved and I put it somewhere but where? I want to finish this and have searched high and low in our new home, to no avail. Moving can wreak havoc on many things in our life, including our reading :D
