I use to love that book, now I doubt I would give it a second glance. Interesting though, how old are you?

galapagos, vonnegut.

it's been incredible so far, but it's taking a bit longer than his others. maybe it's because this is my last new experience with vonnegut's work and i'm subconciously wanting to savor it. who knows? probably not.

I think a few people have already said they've read/ are reading this, but I'm reading The Kite Runner. Not finished yet but it is so, so, so good.

To be honest I thought the beginning was a bit dragging and it took a while to pull me into it, but now I'm about half-way through and loving it. Why didn't you like it? (lol without spoiling any plot lines)

Noooo not Stephanie Meyer!
All of my work friends are obsessed with her Twilight Series, I read the first two and found them highly overrated Badly written and soapy. I perhaps would have liked them about five years ago when I was younger...
