I resisted the urge to watch the trailer until I'd finished the book, and in my opinion it looks like the movie was poorly cast. |

Mrs. (Margaret) Oliphant, The Curate in Charge, 1875.
This is one of the Chronicles of Carlingford. It's very good, not that anyone who isn't already interested in Victorian literature is likely to read it. |

Ulysses... snore, I hate this book, it has such a mean spirited sense of the piss-take about it. But I have a class on it next week, so... blah blah
Am interspersing it with some Brodsky poems to cheer myself up. |

Just finished: The Cardinal of the Kremlin - Tom Clancy
It held some interesting surprises. Good times. The most interesting tidbit was that the US's SDI program wasn't the only SDI program around... Russia has/had their share of gifted scientists. Wonder how close to life the story might have been... Next up in the series is: Clear and Present Danger |

War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy and slowly falling in love with Andrei (IxTJ?). I got through the first book already, which is amazing, seeing I don't remember the last time I finished a book if not forced by English class. The size egged me on, I suppose.

I just went through John Scalzi's "The Ghost Brigades" and "The Sagen Diary" today (saving the next two books in the series for later), and I've been working on Thomas Freidman's "The World is Flat" for a few weeks.

I picked up Ender's Game for a short read before bed last night... Started reading at 10:30 or so and finished the book a few minutes before my alarm went off. I forgot the experience of a good fiction book... It's a bit cruel - they control me.
Doors of Perception next. I had it on my bedside and was really into it, and then I lost it somewhere in my bedroom. I can't seem to find my copy of Lila by Robert Pirsig either. That'll be after Huxley. |
