Since my last post, I've finished The Bourne Identity and read The Devil Wears Prada. I'm now reading Jane Eyre and really liking it.

I just finished the Great Gatsby about an hour ago, and I've already started the Grapes of Wrath.

I'm now reading "Giovanni's Room". Gorgeous, sad book. I just finished "Lord of the Flies." Over the summer, I read "Secret Life of Bees" and "A Thousand Splendid Suns." All excellent books on a "must-read" list!!

Since my last post, I've finished "90 Minutes in Heaven". Very good book.

Now it's a toss up between starting "The Hiding Place" by Corrie Ten Boom or Melvin Bragg's biography of Richard Burton (with excerpts from Burton's private diaries) or maybe something light like, "My Horizontal Life" by Chelsea Handler (I heard it was funny).

STILL reading Anna Karenina (sigh). It's taking me forever. All those 'skis', my LORD! I can't keep them straight...have to keep looking back to figure out who the characters are. haha.

Love Levin though. He's my favorite. My type of man.
