Tell us why to read a book--or not.
Tell us your best book memories. Why did that book change your life?
Give us a list of everyone-should-reads.
And I was thinking two things:
1) How about book-to-movies, books made into movies? Which books are good? Which movies are good? Which ones have nothing to do with each other?
2) The Vinge Reviews: when do y'all want to do this together?

Everything else, old or new, long or short, welcome.
See you tomorrow.

I apologise-it has been a long time since I have written a book review, but I will try to do this book justice. First though, I would like to give a little overall introduction to the world of Jane Austen for everyone, especially those who are wary of it or haven't picked it up b/c they think it might be boring, b/c I admit, I thought it was silly romance stories at first too. (And no, I haven't watched the movie.)

Or anything else you're reading.

And, summer special, any beach reading.
