Maybe I'll get that read in 2011. What collection of short stories are you reading? I just began an anthology by Raymond Carver which I'm crazy about!Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1246220242273461143.post-58582742790553485082010-12-22T17:42:52.920+00:002010-12-22T17:42:52.920+00:00I agree, sometimes you really need an easy read.

Sometimes a hard-or-complex-or-challenging-or-whatever-adjective-we-choose read just doesn't hit the spot, especially when there are too many other things going on (as I recently ranted about myself). I love a complex novel, and I love the classics, but I also love Robert Jordan and Dennis Lehane and other easily-digestible reads.Kerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17595812677247405225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1246220242273461143.post-11833844726030710322010-12-22T01:13:30.890+00:002010-12-22T01:13:30.890+00:00Definitely easy reading is a good thing and someti...Definitely easy reading is a good thing and sometimes a necessity! After finishing Gravity's Rainbow, I think I need some easy things. I might just hunt down some comfort reads for the holidays. I'm curious what your book of short stories is!Rebecca H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10825532162727473112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1246220242273461143.post-63576881977984183492010-12-20T03:58:58.063+00:002010-12-20T03:58:58.063+00:00Wolf Hall is definitely doable in a month but I th...Wolf Hall is definitely doable in a month but I think it will require a concentrated commitment. I found it to be a page-turner that was incredibly dense - so I was unable to read it quickly. But I also couldn't stop. I hope you'll enjoy it! It's worth the time and effort, I think.Bookphiliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05155882653615842141noreply@blogger.com
