It is sort of funny posting this right after Lindsey, because I just finished Persepolis 1+2! It had a lot of stuff I wasn't expecting and a lot of stuff I was. (Speaking of which, I remember seeing in the movie preview that she has a jacket that says "Punk is not Dead" or something ... but that wasn't in the book...) I cried a few times, and smiled other times, so ultimately it was a good and solid book. Both were a very fast read (which is good) because...
I still have not finished One Hundred Years of Solitude! I have to read it slowly because the language is so beautiful and the characters are all similarly named, and I am frustrated not being able to fly through it. However, I really enjoy it so far. Marquez is a great writer. One thing I've noticed is that so much stuff is going on and everything progresses so quickly. That is also hard to keep up with. But I will finish it!
Right now I'm reading Naked Lunch for my literature class, so I am going to count it in my 365 books this year. It is very interesting so far, and something that I would never expect to read in school. Yay UVM!
Psyched for laughing/crying while I read!
