as well as The Bhagavad Gita

I've got three more I'm waiting to read after those two, but, in the meantime I also have to read textbooks...
I liked Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris.
I read mostly collections of short stories now, so I can put it down and pick it up whenever. John Barth, Lost in the Funhouse.

I just got done with one book and starting another that Willard bought for me. I finshed Devil Came to St.Louis and i am going to start Sex and the Supernatural. The St.Louis one is about the 1949 exorist case. It is a good book, lots of facts and history. :D
It's your mom and I helped!!!!

I have read "She's Come Undone" by Wally Lamb. Wow. The book was extremely well-written, he's a tremendous author. But the subject matter really got to me. It was so sad and tragic and uplifting and inspiring and dark and scary and bright and witty. Crazy. It really struck a cord with me. Even though I've never read anything else by him, I always easily remember his name and the title of the book instantly without looking it up. Cause it stayed with me and it's never going to be dislodged from my brain. That's the sign of a good author.

Now I'm going to have to check Wally Lamb out. Eventually. When I finish all of those other books.

Looking at pictures is not the same as reading.

I Know This Much is True by Wally Lamb is ok, but not as good as she's come undone. This new one is hitting me like a ton of bricks. Strikes close to home.
