Only just started, but it seems good, and cleverly written. I've never read so many footnotes in my life.

ETA: Huge pic, sorry. I haven't been here in so long I've forgotten how to post pics.

The Waves by Virginia Woolf

I've never read any Woolf, but I heard that this was similar to Rings of Saturn which I quite enjoyed.

I have Game of Thrones and the first Divergent book. Still have yet to read them, though.

I love Virginia Woolf, my favourites are Mrs Dalloway and To the Lighthouse. Reminds me of my university days.

I started reading Divergent, but never got around to finishing the first book. I kind of lost interest 50 pages in.

A nice little place on the Northside. A historical take on one hundred years of Wrigley field. Definitely one of the most beautiful and breathtaking ball parks ever made. It breaks down the past one hundred years of Wrigley and has so far been a very nice read. I love Americas National past time, and the book does it justice.

I've been there quite a few times. I remember going when I was maybe 10 years old and rooting for the Expos. Since then, the GF drags me out every once in a while, but I don't dare root for the opposing team.

It really is a beautiful park though. Sounds like a good gift idea.
