I have Foucault''s Pendulum but my husband didn''t love it (and he loves Umberto Eco) so I haven''t touched it yet. How do you like it?
Ah, my favorite book! I read it for the first time when I was 10 and re-read it about once every year or two.Date: 7/30/2009 3:57:14 PM

I decided to re-read Watership Down since I got a real bunny of my own a few months agoI''m trying to get FI to read it next. I''m almost done though and not sure what I should read next ... I''m going on vacation soon so my next one needs to be a good vacation read.

I''m reading book 4 of the Sookie Stackhouse ''True Blood'' series. I''ve been tearing through them ever since I started watching the HBO series, and enjoying the hell out of them-they''re my antidote to the Twilight novels. Also, a few other random things that I''ve downloaded on my Kindle of a more intellectual bent, like Christopher Hitchens and ''The Wordy Shipmates'' by Sarah Vowell, about the Puritans.

I just finished Julia and Julie and it was FANTASTIC! It was really really funny and I highly recommend it. I just picked up the Time Traveler''s Wife and I''m going to start it ASAP.

How do the sookie books follow the show? I love the show and I want to start the series, but not if it means repeating the entire story line. I''d rather find where the show is in the book series and go from there. Is that possible?

That sounds really interesting, I''ll have to check it out. There are so many different takes on what really happened in Salem.Date: 7/30/2009 5:32:34 PM

I''m also reading The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane by Katherine Howe, which is about both the Salem witches and a modern day history grad student. Pretty good so far.
I had mentioned this in another thread, but I absolutely couldn''t stand The Time Traveler''s Wife. I found that the two characters sounded so similar, I''d often become confused who was explaining each chapter. It has fabulous reviews on Amazon, so I made it a point to give it an negative review to try and balance it out a bit. lolDate: 7/30/2009 4:37:58 PM

The Time Traveler''s Wife is not so great, it''s actually pretty darn contrived, but I LOVE Eric Bana, so I want to read the book before I see the movie.
