    I am about 100 pages in on the Book Thief and it is just starting to take off for me. You right it takes a while to get going.

    What did you think of Wide Sargasso Sea? Was it an easy read? I am finishing up my Crichton novel and plan to read that next. I've read Jane Eyre, and I am very interested in learning the origins of the crazy, recluse Bertha.

    No, I haven't read the novels, but I am aware of them. They are most certainly on my list. I am going to be very busy reading this summer! I can't wait!

    Have you read The Tortilla Curtain by T C Boyle? I think it is his best.

    Hi Vick! One of the gals in my bookclub just turned me on to this site this weekend - of course I immediately thought of you. I've kept a record of what I've read the last few years, but I haven't been good about keeping track of what I thought of them. I think this will be a fun way to keep it straight going forward. Miss you too.

    Welcome to 1001 books. You can keep track of the books you have read from the book, 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die, join in the discussions on the books we are reading for the month (BOTM) or you can debate the merits of the list as some enjoy doing. We hope you will want to join in the choosing of BOTM and the discussions. The current books are pinned to the top for that month. There are older discussions that can be found by searching discussions. If there is any way the group administrator can help further feel free to ask one of us. If you don’t own the book the list can be found at the top in the group description or at http://www.listology.com/content_show.cfm?content_id=22845. A downloadable list of the second edition is available at http://johnandsheena.co.uk/books/?page_id=160.

    When you get around to reading The Blind Assassin, let me know how you liked it. There are a handful Margaret Atwood books I really liked and I'm curious about that one.
