Would love to hear your thoughts on this book. I read it many years ago. It certainly will raise one's skepticism scale related to use/misuse of ECT, psychotropics in adults and in children.

Musical chairs/books
Reading 3 different books in different formats- anyone else do that?
-The Help by Kathryn Stockett (hard copy, on loan from library and overdue...oops) -My Horizontal Life by Chelsea Handler (on Kindle) -The Consequences of Love by Sulaiman Addonia (I own it, but reading it oh-so-slowly because I keep getting caught up in other books)

i loved the color of water and the tibetan book of living and dying
i finished wild and wasn't very impressed with it...maybe my friend saw something in it i just can't. i've started rereading maggie stiefvater's wolves of mercy falls trilogy - it's a ya fantasy series that i read the first two books of a few years ago (and got to meet maggie! she's awesome). i haven't read the third book yet so i'm rereading the first two and reading the third after. the titles are shiver, linger, and forever. she also has two books about fairies called lament and ballad - they're really good too. |

Half Broke Horses - Jeannette Walls Wasnt sure I would like it but it is an amazing autobiographical novel of a woman who paved her unique way in the world back in the early 1900's. Her philosophy, fortitude, perserverence, independence.... my kind of role model.

I confess...
I'm reading Fifty Shades of Grey. I'm only twelve pages into it, and it's horrid. oKAY, oKAY, she's getting all flushed and flustered during the interview, no doubt responding to his natural dominance or some shit. I GOT it. Is the whole book this overplayed???

Ohhh, got it! That makes so much sense! What character/show/concept was the original focus of the fanfiction?

still slowly meandering through sex and disability...also slowly going through spiritual journaling: writing your way to independence by julie tallard johnson. i was looking for journaling books and this one's aimed at teens but i liked the kindle sample so i bought it. a friend of mine rated it badly but i'm not sure how i feel about it yet.
i'm trying to decide which other book i want to read next, now that i've finished the wolves of mercy falls trilogy. maybe madness by marya hornbacher. her book wasted is one of my favorites...it's been a constant companion for most of my life. |

sometimes turning erotic fanfic into original fiction works out pretty well...a friend of mine who is also a fanfiction author managed to get one of her ncis fanfic works published and it's quite good. i've read lots of fanfic that is better than some original fic i've read. but i think twilight, and fanfiction in general, kind of lend themselves to overwrought, melodramatic sort of romance...so i'm curious to see the reception of fifty shades of grey. |

But then Twilight was based on Pride and Prejudice (as Stephenie Meyer admitted), with the independent and outspoken Elizabeth Bennet having her own love/hate reaction to the rich and aloof Mr. Darcy. So maybe Fifty Shades of Grey is actually the BDSM version of Pride and Prejudice? Hmmm.
