Hi!Long time since we exchanged "Current reads" :) Yes - "The Wizard of the Crow" is a wonderful book. A definite keeper! I am currently reading "Cannery Row" by John Steinbeck. Cheers!
Hi Sugreava! I am currently reading "The Wizard of the Crow" by Ngugi Wa Thiong'o - I have read around a 100 pages so far and it is a very subliminal, entertaining book. It makes me want to laugh at and at the same time ruminate on the content. The book is a tome though - around 750+ pages. Cheers! - Sujatha
Oh, didn't finish Assassins Song. I will go back to it later
HI,Just finished A Thousand Splendid Suns. Loved it. The life of the women just made me so angry. I am now reading Never Let me go by kazuo. NOt what I expected at all
Sugreava,Hi, I just finished What is the What. Great book. I will check other books that are on your shelf. This was a good one.
i'm just about finished with Suspended Sentences fictions of atonement by Mark Mcwatt and will either start What is the What or Assassins song. Have a good weekend!!
I must confess that I have not started the book yet. The meeting is not for two weeks. I tend to hold off til the last minute. This group meets for the socialization(the book is an excuse).
I would love to be your friend! Am preparing just now to hit the Accpet button :-) Leaving tomorrow for Charleston, SC but will be in touch when we get back. Thanks!!!
I own the The Farming on Bones. Have not read yet because I read library books first
You know you are right about working at a Library. The down side is so many books not enough time. I want to read everything!!
My book club is reading Gifted Hands by and about Ben Carson a neurosurgeon at Johns Hopkins
Thanks,I plan to start What is the What from your shelf next. However I get sidetracked because of my book club sometimes.
Hi Sugreva,Well i took a detour. I've just read Brother I'm dying by Edwidge Danticat. I recommend it to you. She is a Hatian author and the book is NF Bio. I learned a lot about the situation in Haiti regarding immigration. Now I am reading Suspended Sentences by Mark McWatt. Could not get into Alentjo Blue but will try again late. What are you reading?
What I would recommend about India is The Space between us by Thrity Umrigar. Have you read it?
I've just started Alenjo Blue. I read Brick Lane by this same author and like it. I've read Rohinton Mistry books about India and liked them better.
Yes, I did take the photo. I am reading Alentejo Blue by Monica Ali. Just finished The Inheritance of Loss.
Hi, Thanks! Yes - I am mainly interested in World Lit, Classics, Nature and non-fiction reads. Currently I am reading "Sons" - Part II of the Pearl S Buck Good Earth trilogy. What are you reading?
Sugreva,Thanks, Did you take the photo of your flower? Is that a rose? it's beautiful!
Sugreva,Thank you for responding to me. I am still in the process of building my profile and book shelf. I have added some books from your shelf to my reading list. I will read them as soon as I can.
