lopeanha Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Still reading Generation Dead, but my mojo seems to be getting stronger, as I read quite a lot on the train the last days.
Weave Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 I have barely made a dent in 'The Girl with Glass Feet' by Ali Smith, my reading mojo is awful at the moment
Lucybird Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Finally past the 100 page mark in Vanity Fair!
Chrissy Posted October 20, 2010 Author Posted October 20, 2010 I posted two books off today, and had the delight of having a surprise book arrive from a fellow BCF'er. 'Wicked Plants ~ The Weed That Killed Lincoln's Mother & Other Botanical Atrocities' by Amy Stewart. It looks absolutely brilliant, with such chapter headings as, 'Fatal Fungus' and 'Weeds Of Mass Destruction'. I am looking forward to delving into this next week when OH is away on business.* *If he has any sense, and notices the title, he'll not accept a salad from me after an argument in the future!
Beccles Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Almost finished Blood and Ice by Robert Masello a brilliant book and a real page turner.

Kylie Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 I didn't do any reading yesterday, but I've picked up again with Atlas Shrugged and I've also read most of Typo-Bloopers, a book about typos in US publications (published in the 1970s).
frankie Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 I didn't do any reading yesterday, but I've picked up again with Atlas Shrugged and I've also read most of Typo-Bloopers, a book about typos in US publications (published in the 1970s). If Typo-Bloopers is the book that was making you giggle in your library so hard that I heard it downstairs the other night, I want to take a look at it
Kylie Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Yes, it made me giggle a bit. Then I started re-reading parts of A Steroid Hit the Earth by Martin Toseland, which is even funnier. I'll show you that book as well.
whitegold Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 Picked up a Journal, German phrase book and an art book about Andy Warhol last night during an impromptu hangout with my bff!

And I forgot to mention that Frankie has given me Chris Priestley's Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror. Frankie's the best! (And not just because she gives me books. ) I also read about 60 pages of Atlas Shrugged and finished Typo-Bloopers.
