Books 37 through 41
December 31, 2011Book #37: Joy For Beginners
This was a very easy read. VERY. It had no heft to it, and each story was wrapped up perfectly, with all the hard/dirty/difficult things hidden away.
Book #38: Waking the Witch
It’s probably not a good idea to jump into a book series mid-stream. It worked out for me, though, since this book is connected to, but independent from, the other books by the same author. It’s not as if I had to have her other books read to understand the story. An interesting read, nothing too deep with the characters, good honest fluff.
Book #39: Let the Great World Spin
I couldn’t understand how all the stories and people in this book would interconnect…it’s definitely not obvious at first. The author does a beautiful job of keeping you a little bit off-kilter, wondering how it all ties together. It’s a great book. Read it.
Book #40: Robopocalypse
This book is AMAZING. I couldn’t put it down, and am happily awaiting the big-screen version – I’m certain it will be a movie someday. SO GOOD. Go read. Unless you’re like my friend C, who is deathly afraid of robots. There are kind of a whole whack of them in the book.
Book #41: Sisters of the Sari
This book was very well-written, and gives you a glimpse into the caste system in India. The American protagonist tries her best to ignore the “rules” in India, with mixed results. Read it.
