Sorry this is a bit late. I had a bit of a rough weekend health-wise but am doing fine now & need to catch up on everyone's posts, as well as get some of my own going.
I'm planning to do an Oscar-themed post this week & do a fun reading questionnaire I saw at Roof Beam Reader. Stay tuned!

little bee! :) it's good and i'm learning a lot about nigeria...it reminds me of the kite runner and actually Library Journal says that if you are in search of the next Kite Runner this is your answer...very good!
ReplyDeleteI've never read the Updike Rabbit books but my husband has.
ReplyDeleteThe Kite Runner was amazing, and I have heard great things about Middlesex but haven't gotten to it myself yet.
Enjoy your books this week!

Yay for The Kite Runner! Once you finish it, "A Thousand Splendid Suns" is also great! Plus you have "Middlesex" ahead of you--what a richly textured and beautiful book, in a totally quirky and unusual way.
ReplyDeleteWow - those are some good ones! Hope you enjoyed!
ReplyDeletePS - My husband, who never reads, loved Rabbit, Run, so go figure.
Ooh Middlesex, I hope you like it, I loved it :)
