Be sure your sins will find you out, especially if you're married and her name's Bertha-- This made me laugh. And then I was almost immediately sobered up and grossed out by the following: So he was pleased, and very tender with his daughter, as if the unborn child were his child. This was my f...
Book Club Read for November for Sit in Book Club.I finished this book only because it was a bookclub read and in order to discuss a book at meetings I really feel I need the full story. I thought this book was crap and I will explain why I thought so.The Novel was banned and I do think that if it h...
Really, a very tender and beautiful love story. I'm not a subscriber to its philosophy, but I think that it is very true to itself and quite interesting. There is nothing overtly lurid in its sexuality; compared to today's use of sex in stories, it is extremely tasteful - even soulful. My one issue ...
