"What are you reading as we start 2004?"
Mon Jan-12-04 09:15 PM by johnbook

          

I received Mitch Albom's "The Five People You Meet in Heaven" as a gift for Christmas and read that. Wasn't all that impressed. Now I'm on to Hemingway's "The Sun Also Rises." I've read just about everything else by the man and somehow missed this one. I'm finding it to be his most enjoyable novel.

What are you all reading? Any reccomendations?
