'Never Leave Me'
This thread is a focused discussion group. Please see the first post below for the current topic and upcoming book discussions. While natter will inevitably happen, we encourage you to treat this like a virtual book club and try to keep your posts in that spirit.
By consensus, this thread is reopened specifically to discuss Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It will be closed again once that discussion has run its course.
***SPOILER ALERT***
Me too, Wolfram, on the whitefont.
Small digression into off-topic natter since we are not yet in full discussion mode - what's the newest Pratchett title? I'm on a paperback only diet of those, so I'm probably very far behind indeed, but I like to know what I have to look forward to...
It's Hat Full of Sky, a sequel to Wee Free Men.
Geared for young adult, but hey, I'm young and an adult.
I haven't been able to get the book, yet. Like Wolfram though, I have a cheating heart. I've read Primary Colors, and am well into Clinton's biography. I'll be trying to make it to the bookstore either on Thursday, or over the weekend.
Oh yeah, I have a little thing with Oryx and Crake on the side right now.
I also have a cheatin' heart, by way of The Count of Monte Cristo and Bruce Chatwin's The Songlines. But I'm getting into The Intuitionist more now, so it'll probably dominate my reading for the next week or so. Definitely interesting so far!
Heehee, and here I was feeling all guilty for cheating.
I'm a one book woman. Or serial monogamist, anyway. And sometimes I find myself continuing to read some boring and thick book that I should have put down ages before, but its sweet words keep calling me back with the promise that this time the plot will make sense and the dialogue will be interesting, it'll all be different, baby.
Sometimes you just got to back away, slowly.
Closer to topic, I no longer feel the same way about my office elevator. And I'm not sure that's a good thing.
Woo Hoo!! I finally got the book today. The person I bought it from sent it media mail and it took 3 weeks to get here from NY. Grrr.
Finished it.
"Bad" news is I am going to be far away from internet from 8/15 - 8/18. Well as bad as news that I'm taking the fam to the beach for a little R&R can be. Can't wait to jump in when I get back.
