It's very enjoyable read with deeply human and believable characters. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275808567357577735.post-25419043567902951922008-10-18T19:51:00.000-07:002008-10-18T19:51:00.000-07:00matt--let me know what you think of Guernsey--I re...matt--let me know what you think of Guernsey--I read it on vacation and it was perfect for that :)<BR/><BR/>bybee--good luck and hope it's fun! <BR/><BR/>litlove--I'm so glad you got your copy of Matrimony!

I'm not participating in this year's read-a-thon either, though I really, really wish I could. I'm going out of town for three weeks tomorrow and, unfortunately, I've got a lot of last minute things to do. Ah well, maybe next time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275808567357577735.post-19299970005313768432008-10-18T02:01:00.000-07:002008-10-18T02:01:00.000-07:00Yay!

I've been meaning to email and say that Joshua Henkin inscribed such a nice message in the copy of Matrimony - I'm really looking forward to reading it. And I'll be an armchair spectator to the read-a-thon too, just because I love sleep as much as reading!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8275808567357577735.post-4711871874440346962008-10-17T23:40:00.000-07:002008-10-17T23:40:00.000-07:00I should be napping...the "trouble" starts at 9 pm...I should be napping...the "trouble" starts at 9 pm my time and I've been up all day.

I do plan to read for a few hours–just started Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie and I’m loving it! <BR/><BR/>Have a great weekend!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
