That Same Flower: Floria Aemilia's Letter to St. Augustine | Jostein Gaarder

Challenge: Read the books you've had forever #1
2 months ago

That Same Flower by Jostein Gaarder I really enjoy alterna-histories and different takes on common knowledge, and Gaarder does a great job of giving another possibility while providing an understanding of the standard knowledge. I don't know if that made sense out of my head:P What i mean is, i didn't know much about St. Augustine, but Gaarder told a great "offshoot" off that story, while providing enough of the original story for me to understand:) i love the writing style as well, as a "tru… read review

    Hey - belatedly H.B. - and have you raided the shelves of your local bookseller as yet? I've been trying to get caught up w/what I DIDN'T get read from last year - so many books, so many interruptions (hubby, cat, grandkids...) I will post a photo of my TBRs this year on my blog...wait for it.

    He's away every second week and we are so used to it but at times it would be nice if he was home every night.

    I'm sorry to hear that but glad you are getting better. I had exploratory surgery in July and was amazed that it took over a week to feel better. Didn't really read more for some reason.

    Sorry to hear that you were sick. Are you OK now?

    Virginia, I was just perusing through your shelves and love how eclectic yours are. They remind me of my actual shelves and my reading style, all over the place. Let me know how Atonement is, it's also on my shelf.

  • What's That Book?

    We've all had that moment; we remember the setting of the book, two events, and the heroine's dog's name. But what's that book? The more members we have, the more likely we are to figure it out.
