    I see a lot of people reading The Grief Of Others... is it good? The title frightens me a bit... :)

    That's quite a list of books you need to review! I really enjoyed TC Boyle's When the Killing's Done. I haven't read most of the others, but enjoy almost anything by Dickens. Bleak House is next on my Dickens' TBR list.

    Read much? Write less? Ah, well. Reading is the joy and bane of our existence. Great selection this week! Check out mine!

    That is quite the list of unreviewed books! Good luck tackling that!
