I would like to make a few book suggestions to get all of you addicted. They are sagas, though, so they are long, but well worth it. Ask about them at your own risk, because I will tell you about them at length.

Are you currently reading several books? I nearly always have a number of books on the go. At the moment I'm reading Life and Fate by Vasily Grossman, Ian Kershaw's biography of Hitler and Panic Room, a mystery story by Robert Godard. I didn't plan...

If you are interested in understanding why our society has deteriorated politically and economically, I recommend Democracy in Chains by Nancy MacLean. She documents the turn towards the Libertarian-inspired Neoliberal Age of Austerity in which we ...

Hi all! Just finished 2 light reads and thought I'd comment on them. First Always Look On the Bright Side A Sortabiography by Eric Idle Quick, fun read with dozens of witty anecdotes. A lot of Britain references which are simply lost on an American ...

I read Kevin Kwan's "Crazy Rich Asians" and found it clever and funny. Last weekend, I saw the movie based on the novel and was unexpectedly delighted. This might be the only time when the movie added important visual information to the story. Highly...

I didn't notice it is a novel otherwise I wouldn't have bought it. Oh well, kind of glad I did since it is an easy read. Written from the perspective of a woman where I felt like she is a little bit biased... There is more than what it meets the eye,...

For Bi-centenial of Bronte's Wuthering Heights here are 20 best quotes from the book. For many years it was my fav book. Such passion as words lept from the pages. Now I'm a withered up cynic and conclude Heathcliffe and Cathy were co-dependent. ...

I just finished The Heart is a Lonely Hunter. I don't know how I went all these years without reading this, but some how I did. So glad I finally picked it up. It's amazing that McCullers was only 24 when she wrote it. Her understanding of humanity...
