Just finished Julie & Julia, and I'm starting Matzoh Ball Gumbo: Culinary Tales of the Jewish South tomorrow. I have a thing for food books... I expected more from Julie & Julia, but it was a fun read. Matzoh Ball Gumbo, if I understand correctly, is more of a lesson in nutritional anthropology, with some personal stories thrown in for good measure. Much more my style.

"Lonesome Traveler" by Jack Kerouac (Actually, Wyatt, you might enjoy this one. Lots of train-hopping :) )

Actually, I am sort of ashamed of myself for not having read more than bits of Kerouac. I know it's my sort of thing. Perhaps, I'll buy something tonight.

Only Love Is Real: A Story of Soulmates Reunited by Brian Weiss, M.D.

This book is beautiful. It's written by a psychologist who used to be a skeptic about reincarnation, but (by accident) reverted a patient back to a previous life with hypnosis. In this book he tells the story of two patients who are connected in a previous life and reunited in this one. It's super interesting! His other books are great too.

I finished reading Salman Rushdie's 'Midnight Children' last week and it was, indeed, a very good read. Very imaginative and never ever for a moment uninteresting. That says quite a lot about a book. 

I've just gotten started on Gaiman's 'Fragile Things'. The mans a bloody wonder if you ask me.

The Audacity of Hope-Barack Obama
If they give you lined paper, write sideways-Daniel Quinn


daniel quinn is super rad...i read ishmael, my ishmael, story of b and beyond civillization, which are all about civillization, humanity, life, the earth, the future etc.
he can be annoying when he writes novels in that he has characters compliment his ideas a lot, which comes out as tooting his own horn. after i read ishmael,i wasn't all that moved, but when i read the others, it all came together spectacularly and i realised that his ideas and articulation of other's ideas do merit much complementing and the books changed my life and view of EVERYTHING and i highly highly highly reccomend them to everyone.
(especially all you dissillusioned with society folks/environmentalist/lovers of "modern moonlight" out there)


haven't read if they give you lined paper, write sideways yet though. i plan to.
