How I Became a Famous Booklogist
Aug. 15th, 2009 09:22 amHEY CHECK IT OUT EVERYBODY, I AM FAMOUS ON THE INTERNETS:
(The above contains: 1. Nothing to disturb the spoiler-free and 2. Me!)
*~WOW!~*
Okay, and if you can get over the excitement of THAT, here's more I-am-insanely-behind booklog:
( 51. Q&A — Vikas Swarup ) it’s interesting to see how the same concept can be taken in two wildly different directions—one that’ll make people hand out Oscars, and one that’ll make them want to mimic Oscar the Grouch.
( 52. Underground — Haruki Murakami ) It’s a wonderful work as a piece of history, and as an introspective look at everyday human action in the face of tragedy.
( 53. The Girl on the Fridge — Etgar Keret ) Just not my thing.
( 54. Honolulu — Alan Brennert ) it’s just not my kind of novel.
( 55. Girls of Riyadh — Rajaa Alsanea ) I still think this book is pretty fucking bleak.
( 56. Fly on the Wall — E. Lockhart ) I wish I'd found more examples of girls like her in fiction when I was the same age.
( 57. Ex Machina: Tag — Brian K. Vaughan ) This "review" says way more about the poor state of my brain than it does about this book.
( 58. How I Became a Famous Novelist — Steve Hely ) I have enjoyed recommending this novel to customers, thus earning it a place on our store’s bestseller list. ;-)
( 59. Devilish — Maureen Johnson ) Perhaps supernatural fiction is not Johnson’s milieu?
( 60. Rest You Merry — Charlotte MacLeod ) this wasn’t memorable enough that I’ll be actively and desperately seeking them out.
Total Reviews: 60/137
I...feel like there was a third thing but now I can't remember what it was. Um. Possibly expect an edit?
