She even compared it to John Irving, but of course not THAT good. Still, a very enjoyable read, I guess.<br /><br />Have fun reading all these books! :) I'm a massive book glutton, too. Lately, I tried to cut it down a bit, but boy, that is hard.<br /><br />Here's to a happy Halloween.

I actually felt good purging!<br /><br />Now I aim to only keep books I truly love, beautiful editions, want to pass on to my daughter, classics.... if I wasn't crazy about it and so will definitely never read it, then why am i keeping it?<br /><br />the cool thing is that now rather than thinking - i have a lot of books... i think, i have a lot of beautiful/wonderful books.<br /><br />p.s, SK's Carrie was my first adult book and began my love affair with him.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11863793441609598153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2347658135768732585.post-82675333448814999752011-10-21T15:54:30.500-07:002011-10-21T15:54:30.500-07:00I love this about you!!
