my clever ploy to read more by canceling the cable is working...

Last week I finished "Snowdrops" by AD Miller and *HATED* it. It is not thrilling, it is not noir, there are no redeeming characters, every character is shallowly drawn and stereotypical and if I hadn't read it on my kindle I'd have flung it cross the room after reading the last few pages.

In an attempt to scrub my brain of that bad reading experience I was very kindly gift with the "Hunger Games" trilogy which I read between Monday night and this morning. As everyone has said, a very compelling read, I really enjoyed the story.

I'm not sure which next...
Possibly "IQ84" by Murakami which I've been meaning to start for weeks but am feeling a bit daunted by, possibly "The Marriage Plot" by Eugenides, possibly something different all together.
