I need to read more books
Could use some suggestions. I would like to read Super Freakonomics.
But mainly, I am looking for fiction. |
I just read a quick read, a fiction work by Christopher Buckley, Losing Mum and Pup, about Chris dealing the loss of his mother, socialite, in 2007 and his dad, William F. Buckley, Jr., in 2008. I had no idea Buckley's first job was as a Spanish instructor at Yale. Go figure.

And I recall you finding Wuthering Heights interesting, so I'd suggest you go back and read some more Victorian novels: Dickens, Hardy, Eliot. |

Currently reading Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth. Quality escape reading.

I've only read two other Russo novels: Straight Man and Nobody's Fool. If you're not put off by the fact that they're all about middle-aged men trying to navigate their ways through various midlife crises, then you're good. Straight Man is more funny than dramatic. I just like the style of them because they are so rich in character development. I should go back and read others. I have the two latest on my shelf at home but haven't gotten to them yet. |
