My Reviews

Blindness (Harvest Book) by Jose Saramago

Book Club Recommended

Insightful, Brilliant, Interesting

Riveting and well worth reading

I read this about 8 years ago and thought it would be a great book for discussion so I just reread it for my bookclub. We were all entralled. I see some comments about the lack of puctuation from other reviews; that is the author's style of writing and it truly adds to the chaos that is occuring. It's wonderful - it's in my top 5 favorite books.

Heat: An Amateur's Adventures as Kitchen Slave, Line Cook, Pasta-Maker, and Apprentice to a Dante-Quoting Butcher in Tuscany by Bill Buford

Boring, Pointless

Indulgent and dull

I can read about anything but this put me to sleep. I found very little humor and seemed more like a "who's, who" in the culinary world. I just couldn't relate.

Pope Joan: A Novel by Donna Woolfolk Cross
