Thank you so much for informing me ab...Oh, Katrina!<br />Thank you so much for informing me about the Guardian article!! If it weren't for someone like you telling me about it, I'd never know.<br /><br />I'm going to read Homecoming again. Did I mention I read it on the Kindle? I was talking about this with some colleagues today. Several in our group admitted that we had a poorer recollection of a novel read on an e-book reader. <br /><br />I find the Nook and Kindle splendid for simple mysteries, thrillers, and the like, but for serious literature, I just can't do it! So I'm buying a copy of Homecoming, hopefully a good hardcover edition for my collection, and I'll read it again!<br /><br />Best wishes to you and Jack,<br />JudithJudithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435116453270981662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543676375857581295.post-49484839671140628632012-09-20T18:58:35.237-04:002012-09-20T18:58:35.237-04:00I read Lupton's Afterwards in the late spring-...I read Lupton's Afterwards in the late spring--early summertime and loved it. Has she recently published yet another? I do hope so!! She's an extremely clever thriller-writer.<br /><br />Yes, I'm heading toward Richard Bausch's Peace as well, and am looking forward to it tremendously!<br /><br />Judith <br /><br />Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435116453270981662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543676375857581295.post-23686917636332252692012-09-19T14:08:27.468-04:002012-09-19T14:08:27.468-04:00Judith, I haven't read any of those ones but I...Judith, I haven't read any of those ones but I've just borrowed Bernhard Schlink's Homecoming from the library.

Schlink week fits in very nicely. <br />My next read will be Peace. I could do with a quick thriller read as well now. I'm really glad you're joining both events.
