RIP Paul Auster. I’m going to start working through his books again. I think I have them all, but some are here in Sydney and others are still in a box in Wales, so I can’t read them in order.

Just finished Out of Africa.
Lot's of subtle life truths revealed/recognized in that book. Plus I'm easily influenced. Really loved it after pushing through some sad parts about the wildlife.
Hope to watch the movie tonight.0 -

I finally started this and am about halfway through.
What a book! Not for everyone because it's rather dark, but I literally couldn't put it down, and read it in one sitting.

I just finished the audiobook for The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams By Stacy Schiff. Very interesting. I've ready quite a few books about that time in U.S. history, but this emphasized events I didn't know.There is no such thing as leftover pizza. There is now pizza and later pizza. - anonymous

Yes, quite the wordsmith. And nothing wrong with savoring good writing!

neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. I’ve always loved his work. I used to collect sandman comics in the early 90’s. It’s been wonderful to watch him flourish.Does anyone have any other Neil gaiman books they would recommend?0
