Focusing on harder things.

When I creepily Stumble through blogs, I always want to know more about the people whose blogs I'm reading. That's what this blog is for--it will list the things I like so as to create a picture of me while simultaneously forcing me to search out and name things I enjoy.

Note: Most of these are not my pictures and have been found randomly on Google or Flickr.

I like this book:


This book, The History of Love by Nicole Krauss, is a terrific read and I just finished it. We don't have a lot of schoolwork here in Italy so I've been reading a lot and this one struck me personally. It is very original and well done and the writing style and structure are very different, something I appreciate as an English major who reads way too many books that seem too similar. The book was recommended to me by a classmate in my Creative Writing class last semester who did a feature on the book for an assignment. I saw it in the library we have here in Alba and decided to start reading it.

It's a story about a book called The History of Love, its author (who, in the book, is not Nicole Krauss) and those who it has touched. There are four main characters (as well as a few who pop in) and they each have separate chapters and stories which, eventually, weave together. It's a great work of fiction and I highly recommend it!

      As of April 18, 2010, I have become aware of the very popular blog 1000 Awesome Things which is, unfortunately, very similar to this blog. I admire and eagerly read Neil's posts but I hope you can see the differences and know that I did not intend to do anything so similar--great minds just think alike!
