2 ?s. Make it 3

Look at big little lies by liane moriarty.  Anne Lamott who I've never loved but know is a pretty big deal gave a good review. And the book for some reason keeps popping up wherever I am looking. Question number two the ann Quinnland  book breadcrumbs do you guys love her I only liked that one book by her the one about cancer. Tried a few others one was called black and blue did not dig it and I lied third question along time ago we listed like authors that you couldn't live without I think you listed 10 or 12 one of you I think listed Ann beatie and I may have asked you this already I apologize what book by should I read I tried her long before I met you and I and I didn't take to it but there's got to be a great book by her. Probably more than one if you listed her. I really loved that because ome of You listed faith  Sullivan whoo had not thought of in years and Sandra I can think of her last name but authors that I think we came to discover together and read voraciously..

Karin slaughter

Okay so when I recommend crime books to friends i usually insist that that they start with the first book and do it in order but I know if I do that with the two of you you do the exact opposite because that's in your nature.  So she wrote this amazing series that she ended after five or six books amazingly but I won't start you there I'll start you with criminal. I loved criminal.   If you ever decide to do the first series you will be blown away by the chutzpah  that she had to close up the first series the way that she did.  People were up in arms. I stuck up for her.  I'm not sure if I love criminal so much because you got to the character so well and then went back in time but  great place to start if you don't want to read everyone of her books in order

Book for Adam

The Absolutely True Diary of a Part time Indian.

Get it audio...it is read by the author Sherman Alexie. But then get the book to look at the drawings.

Your visit.

Keep an eye on the largo at coronet before u come.  If Jon brion is playing we should go.   He is a amazing producer.  Never made it as San artist.  Does a shitload of covers.  U never know who will show up to play with him.  Aimee Mann Fiona .....

600 Hours of Edward

Great book. Reminds me off the good luck of right now. I'm putting it out here just so the title isn't lost for Adam too get some day.

Interesting story about how it was written too.

A gate at the stairs. A lot like me dare I say.

I tried to read this years ago. I love her.  Lorrie Moore but could not get into it.  I am loving the audio.    So funny in a subtle and cerebral way.    A lot like me dare I say!

Shine. Shine shine.

Sorry. But you may want to put this on your list. I fear I may never read again.  I'm so aural. 

Anna Lynch

Bark. As read by the author lorrie Moore

I plan to take a 4 year sabbatical to study with lorrie Moore at Vanderbilt    I know you have always thought of me as a son and will be willing the loan me the money for my 1/2 of the mortgage   My schooling needs including tuition room board food and fun money.  A student needs to destress.   I promise to pay you back even though u don't want me too when I win the Booker. The whotebread. The Pulitzer. And the Nobel peace prize for novel. Vigil.    As a side note. My new teacher whom I am sure to become a muse for has done a wonderful job with bark.  Dry and humourous like Tyler.   All if her books should be titled like life with numbers after them. I will discuss this with her as our roles reverse    Thanks again.  500,000.00 should be a good start!👯👯👯

The good luck of right now.

Abit sentimental and predictable but WOW.   Really enjoyed it.  Plan on reading silver linings before I see it.  This made me think of Saint Maybe which I have a vague recollection of and there is probably no similarity. Maybe because Saint was in. The title and there is Catholicism and Buddhism discussed... It's been so long since I've gotten through a Tyler   Does she bring Christianity into her books? In a backstory way?

These people sound interesting

Hurray for the Riff Raff?

Have you ever heard of them/listened to them? I saw an NPR post for this video:

http://www.npr.org/2014/02/02/267026147/first-listen-hurray-for-the-riff-raff-small-town-heroes

so checked out a couple others - some not great, a couple others maybe????

Johnirving.

Gonna try I one person audio. Will let you chicks know. 

Marriage plot Aimee Mann and Lana.

I'm not sure if audiobooks make me very tolerant or if I have 4/4.  Loving the marriage plot could never have read it. The same with we are water.  With we are water if I picked up the book 1/3 way in I could. The voice of Annie oh was annoying at first and at times later on but a very cohesive Wally lamb.  Close to she's come inform and I know this much is true. I'm also still reading IT. LOVEING the new lana del rey and her song young and beautiful from the great gatsby.   Have u watched philomena. It was my first Judy dench. I get the acclaim. I don't want to say anymore until I know you watched it. I watched the extras too. Bingo aka Maisie (listen to Aimee manns Labrador on charmer) to discover her new name.  Are you fans of her.  She redid voices carry video for Labrador which has nothing to do with the song but is fun as I know that video so well.  You can see videos side by side on YouTube.  I guess that's it.  I'm assuming we will use this for books and music and not work family abortion rape therapy...

Joe Henry

OK - too much of him to start out with - too overwhelming. Give me his best album or his ten best songs and I will start with that. 

hopefully one final fucking test

ok....it now shows Adam as an author....and I was able to sign in as him on my blogger app....so, I think it is all set - we don't have to resort to pigeons.

On the blogger app once you sign in it will ist all blogs you are an author on - yours should just show "let's Talk about Books and..."...then you click on the posts to see them all, click on new posts to write one....it is simple, easy. Also, if you click on "view blog" you see it as the whole blog and you can click on a post and then add a comment if you want.

I think you only get notice once a day of new posts that have been published. (oh - when you write a post, click to publish it).

Did you get notice!

I think you are both now set up as authors and subscribed. So I think you should get notice if this. If so please comment. 

Why have I not ever heard of AMANDA SHIRES?

I was looking for Jason Isbell on prime to add to our catalogue and she came up...she used to be part of his band, but now does her own stuff...they got married in 2013. Very cool - give her a listen if you haven't heard her.

One reviewer said she sings like an earthbound Emmylou Harris.

A couple old ones...

Hoopi Shoopi Donna - Suzanne Strempek Shea. 

Strempek Shea also wrote Selling the Light of Heaven which I might have liked better.  Haven't checked out any new ones. 

Vinegar Hill - A Manette Ansay

I actually do not remember this book - read about it in Amazon and still doesn't sound familiar so going to have to give it a try. 

She looks like she has a lot of good books!

Beth Gutcheon

We talked about her this week-end. She wrote The Five Fortunes which is a really good chick lit book - 5 women from different walks of life who go to a spa and get together every year. Good summer read!

She also wrote More Than You Know which is a ghost story/love story. Really unique novel, I thought. 

She has others I haven't read that I am curious about:

- Gossip

- New Girls

- DomesticPleasures 

- Still Missing 

If anyone hears anything or reads them let me know...

Here we go....

OK - let's try this....if it ends up being too confusing we can just go to a document in Google Drive....I put all 3 of us as authors so we should be able to all write......

hope it really is that easy :)
