I still call him Spider
Feb. 2nd, 2008 02:01 pmI'm writing bookreviews today. Well, bookbabbles really, since I can't be too coherent about most of the books I'm reading at the moment. I usually only read one book at the time, but I only had a couple of pages of the appendix of De Oratore by Cicero left, when I couldn't resist starting in Stephen Fry's The Ode Less Travelled. Then I discovered the books had certain expressions in common, so I wanted to write about that, forgot to put them back in my backpack and ended up reading my emergency book (What? Like you leave the house with only one book for the road). That last one is The Xenophobe's Guide To The Dutch which turns out to be a lot more accurate than I expected. Of course the book is much more right about the good stuff than the bad, but I may not be the most average person in the Netherlands, so I fear even the things I don't agree with might be true *g*.
I will post the reviews in bookcommunity
thej2bee, you are welcome to join or lurk;) The first review I'll put online today is from a book I read a while ago The Adventures Of Tom Sawyer
While I'm stating in my original review I bought the book for my classics collection, the truth is a bit different. ( The real reason was a major crush )
