Anyway, started "The Big Over Easy" by Jasper Fforde and I'm listening to "A Walk in the Woods" on tape while I run around. Very funny stuff.

Originally Posted By Lisann22 Just finished "A Thousand Splendid Suns" the second book for the author of "Kite Runner." I did not enjoy it as much as Kite Runner, it's a very sad and depressing book. In our book club a lot of the women said they found hope and promise in it, I just couldn't see that. I was glad to be done with it. I just started "One Thousand White Women, the Journals of Mary Dodd." Here's the summary: One Thousand White Women begins with May Dodd's journey west into the unknown. A government program, in which women are brought west as brides for the Cheyenne, is her vehicle. What follows is the story of May's adventures: her marriage to Little Wolf, chief of the Cheyenne nation, and her conflict of being caught between two worlds, loving two men, living two lives. Jim Fergus has so vividly depicted the American West that it is as if these diaries are a capsule in time.

Originally Posted By threeundertwo I really liked "1000 White Women." I just bought one for a friend for Christmas. His next book "The Wild Child" (I think that's the title) was also good, but I liked 1000Women better.

And BTW just for you who are the least bit interested: my move to Florida and WDW is the best thing that ever happened to me (well, except for my hair, sigh) Bob and I are getting married in Feb. and all is right with the World! Yay!

I don't mind b & g if the vehicle is worthwhile reading, but this read like a book being made into a movie, or vice versa. Last month my book club read Darkly Dreaming Dexter (I like the show much more). Are we on some kind of theme here?
