In a universe long ago and far, far away (last year). I remember talking about talking about books. Well, best laid plans....so here I go.
I have just read the most thoughtful and thought provoking book published by Twelve Press. This was a publishing company formed in 2005 with the goal of publishing one book a month. A quality book, with some substance.
The Evolution of Bruno Littlemore is one of those books. The only thing I can say is that it is a true philosophical treatise on what it FEELS like to be human. Many books are written on what it MEANS to be human, but this is a marvelous work of fiction. Must read for those wishing a thought provoking read.
My other recommendation is Divergence. This is a fascinating futuristic novel that I could not put down. There is a sequel that I haven't read yet...but it is on my stack.
A few of my favorite all time ones for your reading pleasure:
The Book Thief
Atlas Shrugged
My Sister's Keeper
Time Traveler's Wife
Lord of the Flies
Catcher in the Rye
Middlesex
These are just a few to get started. I have so many books that I seriously could open a used book store. There is only one problem...my books aren't for sale. I have probably at least 3000 books. I have tried to go through all these bookshelves and boxes and I can come up with about 2 or 3 each time I am willing to give up. Jeez...the foundation on my house will begin sinking soon.
Please post any suggestions for good reads, or if you want to talk about a book...go for it.
I could spend all day discussing books, gardening and food. I am always open for another suggestion for a good book. I will read anything to see how it reads. I read Fifty Shades of Grey, something I never would have thought I would do. I enjoyed it too!!! So please, suggest away.
I am going to research how to create a discussion format on here for book or food talk. I don't know if that is possible. Until then, we will have to make do with the posting option.
Hope to hear lots of feedback.
