Book Favorite

"In addition to writing for adults, I have loved writing for children. The first of these, My Life with the Chimpanzees, was written at Gombe during a series of rainy days – it was the only book that was first hand written on paper – the words just flowed from my pen and needed but little revision."

A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again

Book Favorite

"A fantastic introduction to one of the greatest authors ever. This 1997 collection of essays is one of Wallace’s best works. I can confidently say that the title essay is the single funniest thing I have ever read on paper. I can also confidently say … no one will ever write the way he did."

The Invitation
By Diane Hoh
⭐️⭐️⭐️

It arrives on crisp, ivory paper with elegant gold script. It is an invitation to a party like no other, an invitation to death. Written by the same author as "Funhouse".


It was ok not the best of the series but still good!

I really really wanted to like this book. On paper it's something that's right down my alley. It wasn't, though. I fought hard to get into it, but it just wasn't written for an audience that includes me. It has nothing to do with the book or with the writer. I just couldn't get into it.
  
When an obnoxious collector dies at a kiln opening, art reporter Molly Appleby smells something fishy. The plot moves slowly, the characters were paper thin, and I hated the ending. Other then that, I loved it.
