Hi Lianne! Nice to meet you. Thanks so much for the thoughtful recommendations. All the diverse books you mentioned seemed right up my alley. I think I've heard of My Brilliant Friend several times back in 2015. I'll be sure to check that one out the next time I'm in bookstores. Of Sorrow and Such seems like something I'd really love as well. As for Anthony Marra, I'm definitely adding A Constellation of Vital Phenomena (it's his most popular work it seems) and The Tsar of Love and Techno. :) Thanks, again, for the great reads!
Hi! It was a fail on my part too. I should have realized you had a GR account! Thanks for adding me :)
Hi Lianne! Thanks for adding me, and taking the time to answer my challenge question in such detail! =) So many people don't bother at all...
Yeah, I think I may be just as new to Classic Who as you. They aired a couple episodes on BBC and I watched one of them through the end. I tried to watch another but I am not sure if I finished. I have all the opportunity in the world to watch Classic Who since it seems to be syndicated on channel 4 or something. I just need to watch it. Heh.
I may give that DW book a try since the one I got was less then great.

I think I only watched the anime in parts because I'm reading the manga and definitely do not remember certain things happening (I think the anime diluted the manga a bit =/). I'm also glad that they're releasing the manga fairly quickly, don't have to wait as long =D

I was looking for a particular family saga series which I couldn't remember and so I did a search. I happened upon this link. I thought maybe you might be interested. Quite a long list of various historical fiction series! http://www.1mpages.com/HistoricalFict...
Hi Li,
I'll let you know how Frankenstein turns out. If I can be completely honest though, I am really struggling to get through it so far. I love the idea of it, I even love the monster himself... but somehow the story is really dragging for me. How are you liking The Brothers Karamazov so far?

This is so weird! I don't know why, but instead of your P&P profile icon, half the time I am seeing a friend's facebook profile picture as your profile icon here!
