May I also say that you have become one of my favorite book writers? I say book writer rather than critic, because your approach is more unique than that of the typical critic. I love what you write about books, your marginalia approach, and always trust your recommendations.Malena Watroushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01260925686006819181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3981034231309586493.post-45710315823944270062010-03-28T15:15:43.662-07:002010-03-28T15:15:43.662-07:00I am a little creeped out by your book choices, ha...I am a little creeped out by your book choices, haha. For the ff. reasons:<br /><br />1 - Mary Karr's <i>The Liars' Club</i> is one of my favorite books ever, and I've been pinching pennies to get her latest memoir.<br /><br />2 - I received <i>The Gin Closet</i> for review a few months ago. Was so struck by the language--love that you mentioned that Jamison writes deftly even at the sentence level.<br /><br />3 - And <i>After the Workshop</i> is now one of my favorite novels. I read and reviewed it, and was so glad that it fell to my lap. Love that book so much, and I remember one comment on the review post saying that it was such "an engaging call to action." Which is, haha, probably a polite way of saying that I was getting really annoying with how much I wanted to push the book into everyone's hands. :)<br /><br />Take care, now.<br /><br />- Sasha MartinezAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
