Hi Char! *waves* Of course I had to mention you and McDowell when that question came up. I still can't believe that I will now actually consider "horror" novels.
BT!! **waves** You shocked me and then made me laugh out loud on the desert island question: shocked when I say Ayn Rand (b/c you've never mentioned her books) and then LOL when I saw why.
(Am I the only one that would totally cheat and choose 'complete works' omnibuses for a desert island?)
MbD! Hello! *returns wave action* You know what, I thought about complete works compilations, but Ayn Rand's book have the added benefit that if they are as bad as I hear they are, then I would have no qualms to rip out pages and use them for other things that may be useful on a desert island. Ever so pragmatic, I know. ;)
*waves back* Hi Jennifer. Thanks. I have another set of shelves but they are in a state of ... erm ... I'm going to call it "disarray". So, didn't manage to take pictures of them.
LoL. It's a ukulele, but I fiddle with it. I can't play any instrument in any way properly enough to call it "play" (and I certainly can't remember songs etc.) but I find it soothing to add some chords together - either on the uke or the guitar...
Great Review BT!
Great thinking on the desert island, a nice brick of a book to keep one company. I go for War and Peace -nice combo of a book, chair, bed/pillow...
Hi! Nice to meet you. I really liked this: " Reading is important to me because I love exploring – whether it is new places, new ideas, cultures, different times, ... whatever the topic I will find something that catches my interest. Books are a fabulous way to explore the world within and around us. This is so true and you said it perfectly.
And thank you for the shout out! I'm so pleased to have turned someone on to Michael McDowell. :)
