    I just reviewed David Foster Wallace's Hideous Men essay collection, and was relieved to find someone else (you) saw him as "indulgent."

    I always write my reviews before I read any others so I am sure to say what I mean. Anyway I am glad I am not alone on that one.

    I think you would and himself would really enjoy Good Evening Mr. and Mrs. America, and All the Ships at Sea. It's a terrifically well written written novel about a young man deeply impressed, and increasingly involved, in the events of 1964, and his life in the DC area...sort of a coming of age in the Civil Rights era, in the shadow of Kennedy's recent assassination...he begins to develop, and the writing deepens as the novel progresses...
    Love, T.

    Hi! I'm back giving this shelf a go! So, Toni Morrison's new one is worth a read? I think Beloved is one of the few truly great novels of the past blumpity-blump years, but quite the open-heart surgery, with no anesthesia experience! I've read most of the rest of her stuff, liked much of it, but never thought anything rose to the level of Beloved.
    Check out The Company Car...written by the guy who wrote American Beauty...beautiful writing about a large, screwy family...the narrator grows into adulthood in the course of the novel, and the writing/perceptions grow along with him!
    Miss y'all as usual!

    Eclectic Book Club Peeps:

    All righty, let's have those nominations for our next big read. What's everyone in the mood for?

    Post your selections in the "Genres" thread and we'll hash it out. If that takes too much energy, I will put all genres nominated in a hat and pick one at random!

    Elizabeth, as a book dealer can you get your hands on the The PowerScore LSAT Logical Reasoning Bible: A Comprehensive System for Attacking the Logical Reasoning Section of the LSAT? If so, at what cost?

    I hope you will take the time to view my YouTube book trailer at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-t0K34iU6g. I am doing some research about potential characters to play the lead role in the upcoming movie. Hope you can help me out. As Ralph Eggleston Director/Production Designer of Pixar Animation Studios said,
    "I LOVED the book! It's a missing, ENDLESSLY fascinating link to the history of Hollywood. Thank you for researching and writing it!! I hope it's been widely well received, as it deserves to be." Best wishes. Gaelyn
