While this subject can be very touchy for most people, my opinion is that there has to be a middle or common ground that we all can find. I do appreciate that you've added relevant and intelligent commentary here though. Thank you!

There are people out there, like me, who blog about random books. If I read a best seller, it’s usually a fluke. I get my books at the library so I read what they have. I read primarily YA and if anyone needs some YA books to add to their list, I’ve got you covered on my Need To Read page on my website.

I just finished The Book of Mary, by Gail S. Sobat. I loved it. I’ll be reading the new collection of poems from Tom Wayman. Both these reads are for reviews…Waiting for the Wayman to arrive!(Just in the finishing movements of a new novel called: “It’s like this” Has to be with my agent by month’s end).

Just finished Monica Holloway’s memoir DRIVING WITH DEAD PEOPLE … a book that kept me turning the pages even when it annoyed me … memoirs/essays are my favorite — I’m an obsessed David Sedaris person, and although Holloway’s book wasn’t need-an-adult-diaper funny, it hooked me and kind of kept me for 323 pages. I recommend the book to any woman who graduated from high school in the early 80’s, as I appreciated the AquaNet/Journey/preppy clothes references.
In a minute I’m going to start either Joyce Carol Oates’s MISSING MOM or BETWEEN, GEORGIA, by Joshilyn Jackson. Largely, I choose titles based on jacket summaries and cover designs. Of course, I never go wrong picking up J.C.O.

I recieve a book catalogue with wonderful under-the-radar books.
The catalogue is called Bas Bleu - probably on the web. Look there for some wonderful reads. A few from the past:
The All of It (Jeannette Haien)
The Country Life (Rachel Cusk)

I also keep one of Jhumpa Lahiri's short story collections on my nightstand, just to study the great writing. There right this minute sits: Interpreter of Maladies.
Read on!

I loved Helen Dewitt’s _The Last Samurai_, which is one of the ones NYMag lists. It is not nearly as hard-going as the description makes it sound though! A genius boy with a taste for Kurosawa looks for his unknown father and seeks a congenial husband for his sad mother. Good holiday read. I was just thinking about it recently and wondering if she had written anything else.

Some of my favorites from the past year: The Keep, Chasing the Dead, and Fun Home. All great reads.

I'm looking over at my summer stack. Let's see. We've got The Raw Shark Texts, Rant, Wicked Lovely, and uh...duh Harry Pooterhole.

Prepare to go cross-eyed.
