oh, we ARE quite the radicals aren't we? - I know these books all turned me into a flaming liberal - take THAT Sarah Palin!
lol, hope you know who does not read this blog (kidding!)
whatevah . . .
the only one i havent read is lolita! maybe that will be my next read...
i only have a couple left to read, better add it to my embarassingly large list of books to read! :) And "The Color Purple" is my all-time fave, glad to see it on there...
PS Cara why is your profile pic of Dad golfing???
can't say I loved Lolita, but at least I can check it off my list.
yeah my little blond daughter! No one else understands how I can love TKAM that much. And until I read Ulysses, I feel like I'm totally illiterate. I figure I have about another 30 years to do that (hope!)
I always knew Catcher was a magnet, even in Northshore if I recall (not on my watch) But so many others that I have read and not a clue. It reminds me of how each of us needs to stay vigilant in keeping opportunities to explore open to all. thanks for the reminder L.
TKM and Color Purple are on the top of my list. I too have read all but Lolita. Not sure I care to tackle it though.
or you could be Josh Narode-like - who HAS read "Ulysses" AND "War and Peace"!
