Thanks for the comments Jackie and Simcha.

Welcome ChristineMM! I loved your writeups on Stitches and A.D. on your blog.

Katie, I glanced briefly at Logicomix and I’m afraid it would be over my head!!

I think LOGICOMIX warrants a mention in the category of not-quite graphic novels. It’s the story of Bertram Russel, and it looks fantastic.

I discovered your blog today while looking at & voting for some blogs for the Favorite Book Blog. What a coincidence, I just reviewed Stitches & yesterday blogged about A.D. I read Maus earlier this year and loved it.

What a great blog you have! I plan to start reading regularly.

Have a great day.

It’s funny that you brought up the reading salon style book group because just heard about this for the first time, yesterday (before I listened to the show).

I was telling my mother that I wanted to start a book club, here in Israel, but I didn’t know how to get everyone a copy of the same book. And she told me that when she used to live here (back when there were even less English books available than now) each person would bring a different book to discuss and then at the end everyone would exchange books.

I think this is a great idea and I’m going to try to start a book club that does this.

Anyhow, thanks for the great show.
As I Tweeted (Twittered?) to Michael, I have taken to only purchasing books (non SFF ones, that is) that have been recommended by you first. So far it’s working great and I’ve loved all the books that you suggested.
