I'm reading The Moon and the Sun and finding it a bit slow going or maybe just not quite in my vein.....

I also just finished Homer and Langley by E.L. Doctorow and enjoyed reading about these two eccentric brothers. At the beginning of the book I noticed that the spoken dialog did not have quotation marks around it and I thought the publisher screwed up the ePub file. However, after checking the first few pages that were available for viewing at Amazon, I learned it was Doctorow's style to not use quotation marks. Doctorow's articulate writing also helped expand my limited vocabulary as I had to look up about two dozen unfamiliar words.

Okay so I dropped The Moon and the Sun -- it just wasn't doing it for me and am now reading "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter" by Carson McCullers which I'm loving....

Just blazed throughThe Lost Symbol. Great read although the ending was a bit,um, undramatic. Still, it was a page turner and the ending may have been that way because his next book will pick up where this one left off.

![]() ![]() I couldn't put it down, so I finished it at 9AM (read it all night through !) ![]() ![]() The small chapters and the suspense made it for me a great page-turner ! (It reminded me of Jurassic Park for this !) Now I have "The Ark" that's awaiting me ! ![]() |

I just finished reading The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism by Naomi Klein. It was recommended by a fellow poster at The Huffington Post.

Yes. Amazon has it for $9.99 for the Kindle. There are probably other stores and other formats as well. Last edited by WT Sharpe; 10-04-2009 at 08:57 PM. |
