Eugene H. Peterson: A Long Obedience in the Same Direction: Discipleship in an Instant Society
Life changing. A study of The Psalms of Ascent. IF there were more than 5 stars, this would get 10. (*****)
Blue Like Jazz
Excellent in the line, the male Anne Lamont. (*****)
Donna Tartt: A Secret History
Also for mature audiences but a wonderful mystery and look at human nature. (*****)
Khaled Hosseini: The Kite Runner
Another should read. I really had some preconceived ideas about immigrants and Middle Eastern people that have been changed. (*****)
Jennifer Weiner : Good in Bed
Mature audiences only but a good story. (****)
Larry Watson: Montana 1948
(****)
Cornelia Funke: Inkheart
(****)
Michael Crichton: Airframe
Have you ever gotten half way through a book and realized you'd read it before?
Jhumpa Lahiri: The Namesake
Loved this and am not sure why. It is a universal story about discontent and finding contentment. Descriptions are brilliant. I could smell the curry. (*****)
Ohhhhhhhh! How exciting! And, yet, I have such vivid pictures of how each character should be that I almost hate to watch their interpertations! They always fall so low in comparison to my dreams.

Five more months- time to read the ones I haven't, so I can have my own 'vivid prictures' (as your commenter said), and then compare them. Thanks for the heads-up!

Oh WOW, that's spectacular!! Thanks for the head's up. I know where my kids and I'll be every Sunday evening for awhile then... *sighs* I just love Masterpiece Theatre, and Austen. Yes, I must make a reading list too.
