| Introduction | In October 2010, I got my favorite present in the history of ever: my sweet, temperamental Kindle. I doubt Ronny realized at the time that he was giving himself the gift of a partner who has paid him vastly less attention ever since, but that's a topic for a different blog! ;) I've had trouble keeping track of the books I've read and loved since then, and this blog is a way to jog my memory, make recommendations, and hear what friends think. I hope to cover all the books I've listed under "Favorites," and then some. Enjoy! |
| Interests | Great novels, non-fiction that reads like a great novel, anything outdoorsy and active so long as it doesn't involve balls flying at my nose, great food that's not too gourmet, seeing the city and the world with my husband (typically by foot or by bicycle) |
| Favorite Movies | Most recently: Before Sunrise/Before Sunset/Before Midnight trilogy (I love smart sap!) |
| Favorite Music | Nearly everything crooned by a boy with an acoustic guitar |
| Favorite Books | The Orphan Master's Son, Rules of Civility, Bring Up the Bodies, The Night Circus, Wolf Hall, The Leftovers, Freedom, The Imperfectionists, The Evolution of Bruno Littlemore, State of Wonder, The Tiger's Wife, Skippy Dies, A Visit form the Goon Squad, The Blind Contessa's New Machine, Gone Girl, Behind the Beautiful Forevers, Discretion, Unbroken, Middlesex |
You're going to the moon! What did you forget to pack?
Not my Kindle - obviously I remembered that! The charger, though, is probably languishing on the Upper East Side...
