nuffingman wrote:Yes, I've read all of his except "A Little bit of ..... whatever". That's upstairs and waiting. I think Bryson is excellent, witty, observant and a tongue sharp enough to cut your fingers. "Notes from a Big Country is my favourite".
I read "A Short History of Nearly Everything" and really enjoyed it."We're fixed good, lamp-wise."0 -

There is nothing like a good book to distract me from a funk. I was walking around aimless during lunch. I sat down and continued to read "Dirt Music" by Tim Winton.
Man, I definitely know why I was born - to read books like this.There is no such thing as leftover pizza. There is now pizza and later pizza. - anonymous
The risk I took was calculated, but man, am I bad at math - The Mincing Mockingbird0 -
Currently reading "Candy" by Luke Davies0

I finished Dirt Music by Tim Winton. I strongly recommend it. If you like Louise Erdrich books or Into the Fall by Jeffrey Lent, you would like this book.
Onward to Unless by Carol Shields.There is no such thing as leftover pizza. There is now pizza and later pizza. - anonymous
