would you like something to read?

I have a couple of books to loan/give out if anyone wants some late summer reading material:
Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic by Alison Bechdel: This is a great coming of age story done in graphic novel form. Sorta like Dave Eggers but by a lesbian with a different story.

Wonder Boys by Michael Chabon. We have two copies of this (let me know if you are missing YOUR copy and I will send it to you) including one with a big silly photo of Michael Douglas on the cover. The cover is my least favorite part of this book. Otherwise, I think you would like it if you haven’t read it yet. I’ve been reading and enjoying his (that is Chapon’s, not Douglas’) latest book this month.

Um, I also have a copy of iCon: Steve Jobs, The Greatest Second Act in the History of Business UPDATED edition. I didn’t actually read this one but USA Today has some nice things to say about the book on the back cover and it is published by a leading publisher that is celebrating its bicentennial. Anyone want it?

  • i’ve read those first two, and i can highly recommend them both — i think i’ll give someone else a shot at the third book, though.

  • I’ve read Wonder boys & my Michael Douglas photo collection is complete, thanks ! Would I like Fun Home?
