Re: My most recent read was excellent, but I'm not sure "lovely" is an accurate description. Legolas Send a noteboard - 01/05/2011 12:50:39 PM
I've hardly started the Genre challenge yet.

Plenty of time. I still have some to go as well.
Can you recommend a good family chronicle? I've read The Poisonwood Bible and that's the only thing I can think of currently. :P

Well, since you say you've been meaning to read Trollope, some of his series of novels could be considered family chronicles (like the six Palliser novels that I'm reading currently), but it's a bit of a stretch, admittedly. Not sure that I've read many already that I could recommend, either... unless you count Colleen McCullough's "Masters of Rome" series. I'm thinking I might try Sarum, that's supposed to be pretty good.

Not yet, but it has jumped right near the top of my To Watch list. Rebekah - 01/05/2011 11:07:31 AM 665 Views

I considered reading Persepolis after seeing the film. Do you know how the comic compares to it? *NM* DrJacJacMcScrumptious - 27/04/2011 12:16:16 AM 342 Views
It's really, you know, the same. Only without Chiara Mastroianni's voice, obviously. *NM* Legolas - 27/04/2011 07:12:32 PM 277 Views
I've not seen the film yet. But I want to now. *NM* Rebekah - 01/05/2011 11:11:12 AM 282 Views
