I am reading the acclaimed drama, Frost/Nixon by Peter Morgan about British journalist, David Frost, famously interviewing with disgraced ex-president, Richard Nixon.

Still reading All The Light We Can Not See.
About 340 pages in. They should rename this book 'WW2 for dummies'. As usual the golden rule of when something becomes wildly popular it's probably *beep* holds true
Thank you! I've had it on hold at the library for I don't know how long and there is still a miserable number of people ahead of me. I'll take it off my list and add a different novel from my reading list :)
shareThey all fúcking rave about that in the tiresome Facebook book club I'm part of.
I usually avoid the stuff they rave about, seems to work.
I prefer my WW2 stories without magical pixie children with special powers and enchanted diamonds.
I can see why it's been popular - very easy to read and tackily sentimental. The crowds eat that stuff up
A little over halfway through Don Quixote.
I guess I'm enjoying it overall and I admire it, yet it's kinda weird how it's essentially the same joke over and over again for 1000 pages at the expense of a mentally ill man.
It's probably never a good thing really when I say I "admire" a book.
Finished All The Light We Can Not See.
Avoid it if possible. Very forgettable and melodramatic.
The last book I will be reading in the history of the IMDb message board is NOS 4A2. My first taste of Joe Hill.
I'll miss you all. I'm done w/message boards. Taking this shut down as a sign it's time to move on in life.

You'll be back...
But if not, all the best. I have enjoyed bashing Murakami with you.
I was in a book store last night here in Melbourne and they'd made a mistake - someone put Wind Up Bird Chronicle in the classics section!
Thought about letting them know their error but ultimately it's their business to know these things
