Odes by Horace

Re: What are you reading?

Currently I'm reading Walking Through Shadows by Bev Marshall and so far I like it. It's about the mystery behind the murder of a 17-year-old girl. It's fiction. Previously I read her book Hot Fudge Sundae Blues which is a coming of age novel and I'm looking forward to reading her other book, Right as Rain which is similar to the book, The Help. So all three books are very different in subject matter and I like her writing style...easy to like Judy Blume's but with more richness. Good to find an author to follow.

Also looking forward to reading The Abundance of Katherines by John Greene and then might move on to The Fault in Our Stars if that goes well.

Have also checked out Life of Pi...and it's an easy read but has not grasped my attention as strongly.

Re: What are you reading?

Struggling through Karen Armstrong's Islam. All the Arabic names not easy to remember. Getting easily confused and distracted.

Re: What are you reading?

Hated the movie Life of Pi. Demanded my time and money back from my cousin who recommended it.

Re: What are you reading?

So many Ibn's right?

Re: What are you reading?

Exactly!

And the various groups and their leaders in the early years of the Prophet (pbuh)

Re: What are you reading?

^Not sure why I can't move forward with Life of Pi. It's an easy read, it's not dull...but maybe not captivating enough. :/

Re: What are you reading?

I didn't get the movie at all! We have the book. Oifu read it I think. I am going nowhere near it.

Re: What are you reading?

Who's Oifu and how do you pronounce that?

"Buddhism for Beginners" by Thubten Chodron. (Religion and spirituality/philosophy): I recently finished reading this book and find it to be well-written and very informative. It's nice to gain a deeper understanding of different belief systems.

Read Jonathan Livingston Seagull.
