One of my favorite books of all time by one of my favorite authors. I read it in high school and although I'm not a fan of re-reading books, this one will be on that list of "To Read Again Someday."
Some stories are better than others; my favourite are those by Sue Townsend, John O'Farrell, Gil McNeil and Ceila Brayfield
According to goodreads it took me over 3 years, but I did it! I read the whole Bible, even the boring bits. I am currently feeling mildly accomplished and eager to read something shorter and more mindless. I'm not really going to review the content of the Bible itself, as there is no shortage of opinion on this topic. But I would like to recommend the version. The focus here is on Biblical views on the environment and the religious importance of caring for the Creation. The version contains several interesting introductory essays from a range of writers, as well as an excellent bible study guide that teases out some of the key themes for deeper study. And of course, relevant passages in the text are printed in green, much like the famous red-letter bibles that highlight the sayings of the historical Jesus. Highly recommended for anyone interested in Creation Care.
Jeffrey Eugenides claims that Middlesex took him nine years to write, and I believe it. Besides being an incredible story, it's also an essential case study in how to tell a story. There's something entirely unique in the strength of personality and clarity of voice that Eugenides demonstrates here. This is my favorite novel.
