There is only one thing I enjoy as much as reading books, and that is talking about them. Nursing my baby girl, usually puts her to sleep- leaving me 2 hours to read every single day. That means a lot of books.
Here's the list of my recent- reads, since she was born, I'd love some literary company!
- Still Life with WoodPecker by Tom Robbins
- Anna Karenina By Leo Tolstoy
- The Perks of being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
- The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
- Portrait's in Sepia by Isabel Allende
- Moby Dick by Herman Melville
- Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
- Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert
- The Help by Kathryn Stockett
- The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
- A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole
- The Awakening by Kate Chopin
- As I lay Dying by William Faulkner
- Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
- The Portable Dorothy Parker Edited by Marion Meade
- To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
- Slaughterhouse five by Kurt Vonnegut

Any suggestions?

Crime and Punishment ;)
I recommend "In Pharaoh's Army Memories of the Lost War" by Tobias Wolff. I've enjoyed all the novels by this author.
Another author I admire is John Cheever; "Falconer" was a good read.
Do you have free libraries? In NJ, we do. There is also a system called BCCLS in the county I live in, where you can check the availability of books and have them sent to your town's library if it is not available there. Love, love, love my HHK library!
