by Eleanor Herman

my rating:

read in August, 2008

Milkrun (Paperback)
by Sarah Mlynowski
bookshelves: chick-lit

my rating:

Lindsay said: "Again one of the first pieces of chick-lit I read. That's maybe why I loved it so much--I wasn't overwhelmed by the repetitiveness and unoriginality so prevalent in the genre. At any rate, the narrator was engaging and her situation is common in real...more "

Angela's Ashes (Paperback)
by Frank McCourt

my rating:

Lindsay said: "I loved the style of this book--quite a departure from traditional narrative non-fiction. It was so engaging and I felt deeply for the characters but not to the point of pity. I highly recommend it. "
