But not completely, of course!
Here's my reading agenda for September:
Because after ten years, we still struggle for perspective.
Because I loved Little Children (the book) and Election (the film),
and I always appreciate dark satire of suburbia.
Because it's being touted as "Gatsby-esque," and I loved Gatsby.
Because NPR told me to read it, and NPR has yet to lead me astray. :)
As always, I welcome your recommendations.

I'm listening to The Leftovers on audio right now. I really liked Little Children, I recommended it to a friend and she hated it so I'm glad to see someone else enjoyed it. Great books! Thanks for linking up.

When you share your book agenda, I take notes. Enjoyed Little Children as well. I have just starting Ahab's Wife and doing a collection featuring it very soon. It is one of those reads that makes me wish I could check into a hotel for a week and disappear off the radar. Only in my mind, though. :)
