Just finished a wonderful book:
The Invisible Bridge by Julie Orringer This is an epic novel (in size - 600 pgs - and scope) about Hungarian Jews in the 1930s and into WWII. It focuses on the middle son of a working class Jewish Hungarian family, Andras Levi, who gets a scholarship in 1937 to go to Paris and study architecture. While in Paris he meets the beautiful and older Claire Morgenstern, and from there the book becomes an amazing love story and then a difficult tragedy as the Germans close in first on Paris and then Hungary. The writing is beautiful and the book holds you, even though it is long. Highly recommended.

Although I've read most of her other work, I have finally begun Anne Rice's erotica/bdsm, penned as A.N. Roquelaure. To start off, I am reading, The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty. Um ...

Finishing up Patricia Cornwell's latest Scarpetta mystery, The Scarpetta Factor. It's the 17th book in the series. Maybe around book 12 the story began to fall and the books became more disappointing. However, the book right before this one, Scarpetta, was once again excellent, as has been this one. I think she has another one coming out the beginning of November, which I'll definitely pick up as well.

I am currently reading Backseat Saints by Joshilyn Jackson.
She is a friend of mine and was doing a book tour, and happened to be stopping here, so I went, had her sign a book and figured what the heck, might as well read it. Turns out shes pretty good.

Trying to squeeze as much pleasure reading as I can in before classes start next Monday. So I'm trying to finish up:

Only do the National Enquirer while in line at grocery pretending not to be annoyed by the little old lady with 30 items in the 10 items or less lane. I always wondered what happened to big foot's baby.

so, I read an article by Markos Moulitsas in Huff Post regarding his American Taliban book. From the snippets/ synopsis he gave it sounds like he is totally up my alley in looking at the bigger picture.
I still haven't found it downloadable yet, though I haven't given up. Just wanted to give a big thanks to dreadgeek for the title. Here's the article if anyone is interested: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/markos..._b_693281.html |

What did you think of Transgender Voices? I was a part of that study - the picture of the butch with the absolutely adorable dog on pg. 19 - that's me.
