      techie,
      just googled The Last Child and read a Washington Post review of the book. It sounds like a great read. Any other recommendations?
      Has anyone read The Help?

        It's about a boy whose twin sister disappears. She is presumed dead. Well the boy dosen't believe his twin is dead. he sets out on his bike with a map to find her. I was very moved by this story O2Many and I read alot. Three to five novels a month.

          I'm half way through A Reliable Wife by Robert Goolrick...a story about an early 20th century widower who puts an ad in the paper for a "reliable wife" Someone responds, but she is not reliable and not honest. I'll say no more...

                I eat novels, too Oney.

                These are written down and I will purchase them the next time I can.

                It's funny how different the books are that I read. I love sci fi, I love horror, I love classics, I love fantasy, I love mysteries.

                I, too, eat novels up.

                Right now I am reading for the umpteenth time The Sun Also Rises, for some reason many hate Hemingway. I like his very sparse verbiage.

                I love Ayn Rand and Somerset Maugham.

                I also enjoyed the Scarlet Pimpernal and A Tale of Two Cities.

                I very much enjoy Edgar Allan Poe. His poems are often much better than his short stories but I will read all of them.

                I love Stephen King, I hated Carrie, IT, and some others but the short story The Body
                and the novel The Stand
                as well as The Green Mile
                were awesome stories.

                I also often read "trash" novels such as Janet Evanovich, although I only like her Stephanie Plum novels. I like the Stuart Woods stuff. Real trash but fun reads.

                I get a kick out of J.D. Webb (aka Nora Roberts, although the Nora Roberts books suck, IMHO) but her J.D. Webb novels are great fun reads.

                I should probably read more intelligent novels these days but all I want today is something I can read, enjoy and relax with. On airplanes, in the hotel room, and at home in the toilet. :H:H

                I love to read.

                  A few months I read two books by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. The Shadow of the Wind & The Angels Game. These books were superlative. I would recommend them to anyone that gets excited about looking for a great read....techie

                          Oney,

                          Running With Scissors was one of the saddest books I ever read!!

                          People said it was funny, so I picked it up.

                          It is the story of a child left to grow up on his own.

                          It is a very good book.

                          Love,
                          Cindi

                            Thanks a million Cindi, I will start it today....funnily enough, I do like sad books sometimes...I find they affect me a lot more than a movie could.
