Hello, Shawn. I fly Cessnas, mostly, but since I used to work for an airplane dealer I've been checked out on a lot of single engine stuff. You? AP

Shawn,Thanks for the suggestion. I will take it to heart. I definitely have my work cut out for me next time I go book shopping since I was gifted this Christmas with a B&N gift card and a new bookcase which I desperately needed. What are you reading right now? I hope you had an abundant, festive holiday and I wish you plenty of cozy winter reading ahead!~ Angela
Hi Shawn,I've only read Little Children so far but I enjoyed Perrotta's writing and I would love to read more of his books. I noticed he just came out with another new title, The Abstinence Teacher. I stumbled upon it while doing my Christmas shopping this year and made a mental note to add it to my wish list. I will also have to check out Joe College now. It sounds like a premise I would enjoy.Merry Christmas~Angela

Why not weigh in your take of a discussion posted in "shelfari discussion": can reading be a substitute for sexual pleasure?
I posted a silly discussion. You may want to check out.

I read Ideological Origins in college for a class on Literature and the American Revolution. That was about 18 years ago...and you know how it is with required reading vs. reading you choose on your own...Since I still have the book though, I ought to give it a second chance!

My classics list is mainly compiled with the idea that those books would spark the most interest in and hold the most relevance for every-day readers, if that helps explain the method of omissions ;)
Thanks Emerald. You know how it goes, we all have our favorites. Grapes of Wrath is a wonderful example of good straightforward writing. I just remember finding it depressing the last time I read it, and perhaps a bit long. But I won't argue it's a classic!
What an adventurous life!
Hi, this is Jinglebell. It is cool to be invited to be your friend. It is even "cooler" to have a friend who can read and fly!

Hello! I hope you've had an enjoyable summer! I've been sticking with classic fiction for the past few months, but feel as though the fall is a great time to delve back into history books. Any good book discoveries recently?
