Books

Nat talked about how The Time Traveler's Wife rocks. And it does. Some stories take over and make their own life with you, others don't. I finished "Thousand Splendid Suns" last week, and when I walked away, it was over. Yet Wicked, with all of its long and boring passages, should somehow be an American classic, set on high schoolers that will never understand, as meaning it does have.

What sayest y'all? Which stories stick?

Our book club chose The Book Thief for next, I'm looking forward to it.

I'm reading Eat, Pray, Love right now, and it's getting quick now that I know I get to read Beautiful Boy when I'm finished. E,P, L is good, but I find myself thinking it would be better for this person or that person than me.
