I have required reading; "Memories Dreams Reflections" the autobiography of Jung. It is DRIVING ME CRAZY. As some of you know I love Jung, his ideas, his brilliance... but OMG... I think I have been so far and so long off the God path that his ruminations on grace and god and trinity et al are too much for this little fox.
Ahhh well it must be read... |

Finished reading The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest and immediately downloaded Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, thanks to the posts on this thread.
So far so good! |
i just finished - in the courts of the sun by brian d'amato
it's a scifi, time travel, 2012 mayan adventure story i really liked and really disliked the book - the subject matter captured my interest by the writers style drove me crazy quite often on a scale of buy it, skip it or borrow it - i'd give it a borrow |
Okay Okay I calmed down and got through the god parts in Jung's biography. I am glad I did not drown the book in the bathtub. I am really enjoying it. And have even underlined a thing ro two.
One day I will not have temper tantrums when reading. Not today, but one day. I am also reading a collection of short stories called "Fearless Girls, Wise Women, and Beloved Sisters". It is lovely. I love reading stories where women are at the centre, and NOT because they need to be resuced. Damn Disney. |
jus' finished readin' "room", by emma donoghue.
an amazin' read! |
Ghost Story

"Wade tried to imagine Florida before the advent of man, but couldn't. The landscape seemed too thoroughly colonized - the trailers, factory outlets and cocktail shacks of the world below. He decided that if human beings took over the moon, they'd probably just turn it into Florida. It was probably for the best that it was so far away, unreachable." - all families are psychotic, Douglas Coupland

Max Brooks wrote one of the best. Being made into a movie with Brad Pitt. Looking forward to it! If you have any interest in the genre, I can tell you some other very well-written ones! Changing gears right now, reading the new Steve Jobs bio. He was such a genius, fascinatingly complex man. |
