All shiny and new…
Lately, it seems like every time I turn around I hear about a new book coming out that I want to read. Good thing I go to the library a lot!
Right now I am in the middle of reading Bicycle Diaries, the new book by David Byrne (of the Talking Heads). His writing chronicles years of riding his bike through the cities he is visiting; Zadie Smith has just come out with a new book, Changing My Mind: Occasional Essays. I LOVED White Teeth, and I can’t wait to read this new collection of essays by her!
I’m not sure what to think about this one. On the one hand I was really excited to hear Jonathan Safran Foer was coming out with a new book, his book Extreamly Loud, Incredibly Close is probably in my top 10 favorite books of all time. BUT, this new one Eating Animals, is all about his struggle between being an ominove and vegetarian. I have read some good reviews, but often I find it hard to stick with non-fiction, even if I’m interested in the topic. If I do end up reading it, I'll be sure to post what I think.
We just got this one at the library - Nubs: The True Story of a Mutt, an Marine & a Miracle,
Anything new coming out that you are looking forward to reading? Let me know! |
