This story of a Syrian family in New Orleans during Katrina is a real eye-opener and page turner. Thanks to Carrie for the recommendation.

This is my most used cookbook. The recipes are yummy, and there are photos for all the food. It's also laid out so you can create entire meals, including meals for holidays like Thanksgiving.

Schlink has both a great story and philosophical concepts and questions here, but they are undeveloped fictionally. The story is too spare. It's as if this is a second draft of a novel, when it needs to be the 6th. I was not able to identify with either character, as they lacked depth; the intimation of depth was there, but it was not explored. Schlink asks the questions, literally on some pages, "What does it mean when . . . ," and, "Could it be that . . .," but he does not tell that story. I want to explore those questions through fiction, the beauty of a novel, not a story sketch interposed with legal and moral philosophy. At the end, I could not tell you why Michael Berg's life was decimated by his love of Hanna. Some might say my imagination is lacking. But, that's why I read -- to be taken to places I can't imagine enough to understand, and because The Reader was not able to carry me to its potential heights, it was a great disappointment.

Terrific book ostensibly about Afro-Semitic relations in New York set in an all but empty apartment building with intermittent electricity, rats running around and rarely flushable toilets. The landlord offers Harry Lesser, a Jewish novelist increasing amounts of money to leave (he's the last tenant), but he refuses to do so until he finishes his third novel which he has spent ten years on and thinks the disturbance would ruin it. He finds a squatter in a flat below who is black and also a writer and the two begin a symbiotic love/hate relationship as Harry tries to help with William Spearmint's own novel/memoir. The problem is Harry falls for Bill's (as he wants to be called) white girlfriend, and mayhem ensues. This includes racist catcalling, violence, and most dreadful, burning of manuscripts when only one copy exists. It's thrilling, terrifying, and strange if you write because the novel's real subject is writing, about how it takes over everything, and all else is secondary, including love and lovers, family and friends. There's rivalry between the two as the building decays around them. The landlord offers $10,000 (a hell of a lot in the 60s), but still Harry clings on. It's very 60s, minis and beads, and pot parties and the like, and it's totally fascinating and gripping. I don't know what non-writers would make of it though, because the obsession flattens all.

This is another one of those books that I could read over and over. I first read this book in either middle or high school English class and at first I didn't like it at all but my teacher told me to read it again and I fell in love with it. Every time I read I feel a little better about the world and how far the US has come in the last century. Even though he is pretty much a minor character in the novel Boo Radley is my favorite character. I also like the movie adaptation. I personally think that it is very close to the book and it's Gregory Peck how can you go wrong there?
