I don't even know what book I am on in the pledge, as I have not been very diligent in my posting. I haven't been very diligent in my reading either this year. I think the pledge has taken away some of my thrill. I bought this book simply because I had seen it around so much that I thought it must have some merit. Well, eh, not so much. I will have to say that I consider myself a fast reader, and this book took me three weeks to get through. I just found myself getting bogged down in all the history with Cal's parents and grandparents and I wanted to know more about Cal. I know a lot of people really like the book, but I personally wouldn't recommend it.
I think I told you to buy it during our one last mad dash through the bookstores before 1/1/10.
ReplyDeleteIt's really not for everyone. It's one of my favorites. But at least now you can say you read it.
The thrill is in the hunt and that's what you are missing. I'm enjoying not really knowing what I'm reading next or why it's on my list!
