He's the kid who when assigned a book review in school will go online and find a good summary and write his review based on it. So his Mom was shocked when he up and order the brand new hardback from Amazon with his own money after reading a free 40 page preview on line.<br /><br />I got in the library queue for it last fall but my turn came during the holiday season and after reading a couple pages I realized it would be worse to read further only to have to give it up unfinished than to give it up immediately.<br /><br />Plus that book was so physically heavy and the print so small! I now have an e copy on my netbook. But I've been so busy with review copies since December I've not had a chance to get to it.<br /><br />As for reccomendations: the three most amazing books I've read recently were The Night Circus; The Child Thief; and The Tiger's Wife.<br /><br />I've got two ebook giveaways open this week.Joy Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04976987581528470589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497062501059248350.post-61441232559440011062012-02-06T20:07:44.552-06:002012-02-06T20:07:44.552-06:00Wow, congrats on finishing 1Q84!

I just received it so I can't wait to read it now.<br /><br />Since our tastes are so similar, I'm going to recommend How Georgia Became O'Keefe by Karen Karbo. I'm reading it right now and it's like having a conversation with a good friend about a famous painter.<br /><br />Have a great week.Vasillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08463689838763126048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497062501059248350.post-65702225838539186572012-02-06T09:25:10.636-06:002012-02-06T09:25:10.636-06:001Q84 has been very hit or miss with people.
