Books

What are the last few books you read? What did you like/dislike about them?

I'm looking for things to add to my to-read list. I have quite a few already, but I'm always looking for new ideas. Don't worry about genre or whether you think I'd like it; I'm interested in seeing what everyone reads.

Last year was the first time I've been able to read an actual book in years (thanks, most likely, to the Wellbutrin, as nothing else changed and I was suddenly able to concentrate), and I feel like I have so much catching up to do, especially given how much I used to read.

Really? I was SO looking forward to Wally Lamb's new book! I LOVED She's Come Undone and I Know this Much is True.

I haven't read his other stuff, although I'm told I should! I think I was just disappointed because the book flap indicated that it was about a married couple teaching at Columbine High School the day of the shooting rampage, and I was really looking forward to reading about that. Although it's mentioned throughout the book and certainly plays a large role in the main characters' personalities, it's definitely not about that, per se. I was expecting more of the book to be about Columbine and their experiences in particular, and not the ancestry that it focuses on for a large part of the book.
