I have been reading like crazy. Here is the latest.
Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides
This book is really good. It shows the tumultuous life of an immigrant family, and how the decisions from generations past, affect the life of a young hermaphrodite in the present. It was so well written. I won't spoil it.
White Teeth by Zadie Smith
Well this was a painstakingly long read! I don't even know where to start or finish. I guess in reflection the story comes together, but it was a really slow start for me, it actually never picked up. But I just didn't want to quit as I had put in so much effort.
Next on the book list: Mouthing the Words by Camilla Gibb
She is one my favorites. This Wiki link doesn't say much about her. She has a PhD from Oxford in Social Anthropology- I wish!! Her other books are great. I love her writing.
Please send your book suggestions my way, I am always looking for a good read.
