Water For Elephants

  Partially because I'm trying to procrastinate studying for my finals, I decided to post about a book I read the other day. It is titled Water For Elephants, by Sara Gruen. The story takes place in a 1930's depression era circus, and is filled with inspiring and hilarious characters. This is actually the type of book that I would want to see made into a movie, surprisingly.

Another book that should be made into a movie?

The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster. Anyone who hasn't read that has been seriously deprived.

Angela's Ashes

   This past weekend, I finished reading Angela's Ashes, by Frank McCourt. It deserved every reward it received. Literally, one of the most touching, funniest, best books I have ever read. It's funny - recently, I've been reading a lot of novels that give insight into Irish culture and folklore. I find it really fascinating... definitely something I'll be looking out for at the library from now on. What have you guys been reading? Any suggestions? I do not discriminate, I'll take any genre.
