Noticed you liked The Glass Castle, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a dysfunctional family (and also a bit dark). I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

The threads have sorted themselves out to my satisfaction. Yayyyy!

Hi BritAnnia, thanks for the thought but it didn't work. The threads are still showing sorted by # of threads unread, largest to smallest. And the largest threads are all the old ones and I've been keeping up with the recent ones which are now at the very end of about 9 pages for GD threads alone. Computer still remembers the threads I've read so they don't show up at all. Funny thing is, the threads are still sorted the way I want them on my work computer.

MINE! They're all MINE! Well.. okay, some belong to my husband or children but they're on MY shelves!
Heheh. I feel the exact same way. The bookshelves are mine, the barbeque is husband's, and the entertainment system is ours :oD

Hello Lisa, Thank you for the birthday greetings!I have been a bit slack getting to LT these days. Between reading and Facebook and Twitter and RL I run out of time! Esp since I am not a fast typer or reader.
I just looked at some of your books and it reminded me that I too have read The diary of Adrian Mole. I am just going to add it to my list on LT. I am putting in all books I have read, not just the ones I own.
Is Sophies Choice worth a read?
Regards, Chris

Oh no, we love it too! Corned beef and potato pie with puff pastry, gravy and a pile of peas and sweetcorn, perfect... xx

Weird! A book mystery. Which one is hiding?!?!?!

posted by blackdogbooks at 10:42 am (EST) on Apr 11, 2009

Yes--what's fascinating is that it does give a completely different way of looking at The Prince and yet I'm still feeling as though I can't reject the traditional view, either. I usually try not to put too much emphasis on the biographical information in interpreting works--the words should mean what they mean, I think--but it's really hard to dismiss Machiavelli's life and the context that provides.

Well, it's fun to wonder, anyway.

Best,
Elizabeth
