a plug


Very few books capture me right at the beginning.
I am choosy about what books I read these days.
I don't have too much "spare" time for pleasure reading.
This one, however, has now taken it's place on my TOP 3 list.
(along with The Good Earth, & The Poison Wood Bible).
I am only 1/2 way through, and I'm already mourning
the fact that it'll be over soon.
I love this author.
I've never read anything so captivating
or so vivid.
I love his style and unique point of view.
So for now, even though I've not finished reading it,
this is a definite new favorite.
(There is a little language in it...)

I LOVED this book, too! It's so fantastic.

Plus, we have the same top 3 books! Well, I must add Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer (which you should also read). So, we have 3 of the same top books. Nice.

Thanks for your top 3 picks. I will have to check them out at my local library.
