Not that that doesn't happen ALL the time when I read anyway. Haha.<br /><br />Read The Blind Assassin! Love Atwood. And I loved the stories that made up The Interpreter of Maladies! The Namesake is one of my favorite books of all time.<br /><br />Hopefully you find more time to read this year, I know it's so tough with school (-work & -reading) simultaneously!jessica mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04681137785594891236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7969303765880145371.post-32963394924969418932013-01-06T13:27:38.833-05:002013-01-06T13:27:38.833-05:00This year was unfortunately one of the years I rea...This year was unfortunately one of the years I read the least. Last semester almost killed me. It was the first time in my life that I had to leave a book on my nightstand to attempt 10-15 minutes every night. I can hardly even remember what I read (obviously it must have been so great seeing as how I can't even recall any of it). I did just finish The Fault in Our Stars by John Green and sobbed through the whole second half. I've only read a couple of the books on your list: A Moveable Feast is on my all time favorites list. I'm ashamed to say that The Blind Assassin has been sitting on my shelf unread for a few years now. I really should read Interpreter of Maladies as I loved The Namesake so much. And I, too, was disappointed by The Marriage Plot. It was so....meh. I'll have to try and think back on what I read this year and if there's anything worth recommending I'll get back to you.Lyndseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02499344697144211303noreply@blogger.com
