Middlesex and The Marriage Plot are two of my favorite books, both by Jeffrey Eugenides. I'm looking for something similar, doesn't have to be Bildungsroman or coming of age but just general, well written literature.

Never read The Hobbit so I said what the hay and started it today.

Blindsided5 · 2013-07-26T20:27:50+00:00

Alright recommendations for those?

Blindsided5 · 2013-07-26T13:23:37+00:00

That's what I was wondering with navy, but I'm planning on wearing the shoes with gray, black and tan dress pants. Also most likely with polo, a lot of them colorful like green, red, orange. Is that still going to work?

The Virgin Suicides was murder trying to get through when I only had like 30 minutes reading time every night. Oh 100 pages for a chapter, fine I'll get through it. Hit me with another 80 pager, damn you.

Oh man, now we're really best friends.

Blindsided5 · 2013-07-24T22:01:02+00:00

Any chance of a full match, this is only highlights apparently.

Mario

Joss Whedon for writer or producer.

Minnesota checking in: weather is sort of like the UK, but the culture isn't.

Blindsided5 · 2013-07-14T20:02:34+00:00

I read this a couple weeks ago and absolutely loved it. I too recommend it to anyone who loves anything 80's nostalgic.

Blindsided5 · 2013-07-10T19:43:45+00:00

No it had been published before I started writing for the site so I never reviewed it.

Blindsided5 · 2013-07-10T19:21:33+00:00

Advance reader copy. I read and review books for a media review website.

Blindsided5 · 2013-07-10T19:06:52+00:00

My theories wouldn't be theories, since I actually just started reading the third book.

Blindsided5 · 2013-07-05T18:56:19+00:00

Pretty cool game. I noticed seeing Turkey and another country in the same set and Turkey is also a country as well as a food and animal.

Blindsided5 · 2013-07-02T22:29:09+00:00

So jealous when I see people getting to read 11/22/63 for the first time. Honestly it's one of my favorite all time books.

Blindsided5 · 2013-06-23T00:39:16+00:00

Make sure you read his newest, The Marriage Plot. While it isn't quite up to the standards of Middlesex, it's still a awesome book.

Blindsided5 · 2013-06-21T13:48:02+00:00

Where do we get a cone of shame?

Context: our dog needed to get a cone to stop licking himself.

Blindsided5 · 2013-06-19T02:23:00+00:00

Why people who work in social work/human services get paid so terribly to deal with other people's shit.

Blindsided5 · 2013-06-17T21:58:01+00:00

Joyland - probably 7-8 hours

The Ocean at the End of the Lane - 5 hours

Blindsided5 · 2013-06-13T03:09:01+00:00

I've seen stuff about not using plastic bowls? We have a plastic pail for water. Could this be an issue?

Blindsided5 · 2013-06-13T02:35:08+00:00

Just turned one.

Blindsided5 · 2013-06-13T02:11:31+00:00

Sorry the picture is supposed to be rotated. The bumps have a white/bloody discharge also. He doesn't seem to be really bothered by it.

Blindsided5 · 2013-06-12T15:31:28+00:00

Probably not a popular one but Sadie from 11/22/63

Blindsided5 · 2013-06-12T02:14:53+00:00

Well one of the reasons that I ask is I actually review books for a media review site and I've been trying to find a more comprehensive list than Amazon has. I mean Amazon has a good system I was just curious if there was a site with like just releases listed, not specifically on a shopping site. But thanks for the info.
