It was truly surreal. Sorry, I can't really think of any suggestions for the contest, but I know you'll come up with something fun!<BR/><BR/>literary feline, In Cold Blood is the one book that Capote's known for, and I haven't read it, yet. My husband loved it. Have you seen the Capote movie, which deals mostly with him writing that book? It was really good. <BR/><BR/>andi, Yeah I did like this book. It's not perfect -- it did get a little confusing in the middle portion. But, I think he does that on purpose because that is exactly the way Joel feels. I know exactly what you mean about having more reading time when you're on a schedule. I don't do well at all when I don't have a schedule to keep me on track. I get less of everything done when I'm out of work.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00795619401977840939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7425401134381509448.post-30134718407799200922008-06-08T11:28:00.000-04:002008-06-08T11:28:00.000-04:00nymeth, I didn't read anywhere that Idabel was bas...nymeth, I didn't read anywhere that Idabel was based on Lee, but I did wonder.

Maybe I'll like it after all! I'm looking forward to catching up on my own challenge (sad) when school starts back for the fall.

This does sound good. The scar around the girl's neck reminds me of the book I just started today which is about a woman who was born with a terrible looking birthmark.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7425401134381509448.post-57775651498451960972008-06-06T18:08:00.000-04:002008-06-06T18:08:00.000-04:00You are all ready for the dead mule contest!

So many will run across the mule in the same books. I was going to quote <I>Mudbound</I> then I thought I would be taking away someone elses chance to participate since I gave the one example they may find. Make any sense? <BR/><BR/>Maybe I should make it a haint/dead mule scavenger hunt? Any ideas would be appreciated. ;)<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you read and wrote about this book, too! Now, I want it! ;Dmaggie moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462439415973311990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7425401134381509448.post-47176277370513357662008-06-06T16:23:00.000-04:002008-06-06T16:23:00.000-04:00About it being semi-autobiographical, did you know...About it being semi-autobiographical, did you know that Idabel is supposedly based on Harper Lee? <BR/><BR/>I'm glad you enjoyed this one :) I love Capote, and this is no exception.Ana S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16092495983972185943noreply@blogger.com
