I have been reading a lot, but can never remember the titles of books. I read a lot of murder mysteries. I have "The Life of Pi", waiting to be read, which I borrowed from someone at work. I can't seem to get started. I also have a sweater to finish knitting that I have been procrastinating about. Thanks for the recommendation of this book. I might check it out at the local library (pun intended). Thotlady’s last blog post..Sleeplessness I have trouble remembering authors for some reason...The Life of Pi (in Italian) has been sitting on my nightstand for years now. I can't seem to start it either, but I had been blaming the Italian....

seems like an awesome book from your review. i will definitely be putting it on my “must reads” list right now i’m reading the twilight series and i’m on the last book. it’s been a great easy read but always love something new and this sounds exciting!!!

I love fast and fun books too…I’d like to read more of the Twilight series (I’ve only read the first one so far and was kind of “eh” about it)….

Sounds like a great book. I love books that really take you somewhere. Right now I am re-reading Mansfield Park.

Good for you, Nicole; I had trouble getting through Mansfield Park once. Maybe I’ll try it again this summer!

Sounds interesting. I’m currently reading The Faith Club, about three women in post-9/11 NYc — one Christian, one Muslim, and one Jewish — and how they come together to learn about each others’ faiths.

Ooh that sounds interesting….

This sounds fascinating. I tend to love well-told, cross-cultural stories in any case. Thanks for the lovely review.

Sounds like good summer reading, typical fare for under the “ombrellone” (if I manage to get any ombrellone time this summer).

Ooh best of luck in the drawing *and* on getting that ombrellone time!
