What are you reading this week of April 1, 2018? [View all]

Last night I read Infinite Jest and today I think I'll breeze through War and Peace.

Actually, I have read both, but long ago and over a considerable amount of time.

In reality, I am pretty much breezing through Basket Case by Carl Hiaasen. He is SO readable and fun. I love all the rock 'n roll characters. Also fun is Tales of Burning Love though that one is taking much longer to read. I guess because I just savor every word, every phrase. Erdrich is so amazing.

Then there's Secondhand Souls. What can I say? Need a cheese! Some of the funniest stuff ever.

Hope your bunny brings you lots of good books, or chocolate. Tell us about it.

Don't be an April fool. Read a book!
