books I have yet to read....

but have owned for years....
  1. Edith Wharton The House of Mirth
  2. Fyodor Dostoevsky Crime and Punishment
  3. Emily Bronte Wuthering Heights
  4. Salvador Dali Hidden Faces
  5. Judith Thurman A Life of Colette
  6. Arthur Miller A View from the Bridge
  7. Jules Verne Five Weeks in a Balloon
  8. F. Scott Fitzgerald This Side of Paradise
and have recently bought....

  1. Roald Dahl Collected Short Stories
  2. Amanda Foreman Georgiana Duchess of Devonshire
  3. Anain Nin/Henry Miller A Literate Passion
  4. D.H Lawrence Twilight in Italy
  5. Kirk Lake A Biography of Rufus Wainwright
  6. Cecil Beaton Portrait of New York
Quite a few of these books have been attempted and failed at (Crime & Punishment) or never started cos of preconceptions (Wuthering Heights).... Its a challenge alright! Some of these books are huge! Plus the fact that I am only halfway through the Marie-Antoinette biography.

On the plus side I am having a definite phase of reading historical books, biographys, etc. And most of the new books I am busting to read, so they will be easy.

but the rest..... jesus. Thank god theres nothing on tv worth watching* and I have almost finished the Mad Men dvds.

*except Two and a Half Men.

I think there is always time for two and a half men. It's going to be like a friends show...you know the show 'Friends' "I'll be there for you...." my favorite. You can never get sick of that show. You can watch re-runs and know all the lines word for word and still not get sick of it. Well I find myself the same way as two and a half men!!
Which reminds me of a book I just read called Love Tag by Peter Shianna. It's one of those books that you will like to read time and time again. Actuallly, my husband read this book shortly after I did and he loved it too...So really all men and women will enjoy this book!!
