I am now reading A Little Life. Hit a spot that was difficult to read; read a little, put down for a few minutes, repeat. Figured this was going to happen at some point.
Goldfinch was about 50 percent too long. Haven’t read Anna.

I Know This Much Is True by Wally Lamb
I have only read it once, but I loved it. One of my favorites. I will add it to my 2018 RE-read list.
Loved it!! I read it when it was a new release and again about 7 years later. One of the only two books I have ever reread and I loved it even more the second time ?
Finnegans Wake (628 very full pages)
Yes, but why? That is one brilliant book that confused the hell out of me.
A little life. A fine balance. 11.22.63
ooh, nice, i just bought A Little Life last week
Wally Lamb’s “I know this much is True” and “Little Life”
@Karyn oh, A Little Life was so heartbreaking and beautiful
And as I’ve said, A Fine Balance is one of my all-time faves. Loved 11.22.63, too! (And all of Wally Lamb’s books)
@Karen and @Karyn, we could be in a book club together and have the BEST conversations. Oh, wait, we are!!!
@Leah I’m reading this now and, yes, it is heartbreaking.

The Once and Future King
A Suitable Boy, by Vikram Seth. 1,345 pages. One of my favorite books of all time. About a young woman and her mother looking for a husband for her in India a few years after India became independent, which was 1949. Four young men are considered. As you learn about the men, you enter into the worlds of campaigning for political office, playing music for a high class courtesan, manufacturing, and so much more. You completely enter a world in such rich and vibrant detail that it was painful for me when it finally ended.
Lovely reply, thank you so much l, before autocorrect stuck it’s head in , I will certainly try.sSounds heavenly,,!???
Thanks for the description!
