hi people. i decided to do a new posting of books which i am reading or those that i have just finished.
I will call the posts: "I just finished ..."- or- "I am reading..." depending on the status.
I just finished Wally Lamb's She's Come Undone. It was okay. It was basically about a sexually traumatized fat girl who came to accept herself through a lot of effort, psychotherapy and self-acceptance. it was addictive because you kept expecting a train-wreck, and you got one (satisfying!). i would recommend it as fair to middlin. read better, but good if you are feeling unattractive or your life is too easy. also it was written by a man whose character in the book is a woman growing up. maybe it shouldn't matter, but it kind of bugged me. also, his name is Wally Lamb which just bugs me for no concrete reason.

About Me
- ODS
- New Orleans
- i just moved to the Big Queasy. Started a blog to vent my thoughts, not sure if anyone is going to read it, I am just using to record my experience here, kind of like a journal and having an imaginary audience helps me articulate things and motivates me to be witty, brilliant and insightful. I will post things in no particular order of importance, in no chronological order, and some of what I post will have nothing to do with New Orleans, but just with life in general. Sometimes it is really exhausting when thinking about your environment is your job, and you just want to do something else, like read about Britney Spears. I am really not interested in being politically correct or overly sensitive in this space, even though I will probably touch on some delicate issues here relating to the recovery of the city, like race, socio-economics, federal policy, and how I think Louisiana oysters are sub-par. If you get offended or bored, or think that I have got it all wrong, then go do something else. :)
