Comment: You have an interesting writing style and I love the personal notes you added to your log for me. There are a few books in your log that I'm definitely going to try as well! Thank you.

Comment: Thank you, what a great reading log. Arrived in the mail today and I ripped it open so I could see what books you chose to read. I may be reading one or more in the near future. Thanks for sharing.

Comment: I love your reading log. I now have some fun new additions to my reading logs for next month. Thank you, Joy

Comment: Thanks for the great reviews! You had me at "local non-profit feminist bookstore" :P

Comment: i love your list and have found several books I'd like to check out

Comment: Very good. I found a new author. Thanks!!!

Comment: This is off topic, but I dream to visit Portland Oregon. =P Thanks, for a lovely reading log. I feel like I got a really good idea of your reading style. I'll totally look into some of those books. Wishing you a great July (and August too!).

Comment: Yee Ha, you've got me going! I've read two of the books on your list and am very interested in several others, I'm off the the library right now to acquire Ready Player One and Blue Thread. I've reserved Patience and Sarah (there's only one copy in the entire Tucson County library system and it's out) and I've put The Name of the Star-on cd-onto my BookSwap wish list. The library doesn't have Big Fat Manifesto. A question: Should I red The Graceling before I reat Bitterblue (which sounds really good)? Thanks so much, Shelley!

Comment: Thanks for your great reading log. I wish I had extra time to read more! I have read The Diary of a Part Time Indian and loved it, and also am a big fan of Neil Gaiman. Definetly thinking of checking out some of the books you reviewed =)

Comment: Thank you for the great reading log!

Comment: Absolutely LOVED your list! I've added quite a few as "must read" books on my list. I had a similar experience with the "clan of the cave bear" series - reading them aloud in whispers in junior high and high school! lol I love the idea of your YA reading group - it's great to think kids are being exposed to such a wide variety of reading experiences! Peace and thanks for sharing :)

Comment: I read The Hunger Games too :) The rest of that trilogy is good too. I really liked the card you sent your reading log in. :)

Comment: Great list and wonderful descriptions thank you...Sorry for the late rating because of computer/email issue

Comment: Thanks for the rating log. I haven't read any of the books on your list but have The Secret History to read before the end of 2010. I love what I have read by John Irving so far so will look up A Son of the Circus.

Comment: One of the most thoughtful and serious lists I've received in the time I've been doing this swap [a couple of years]. I enjoyed your comments and insights.

Comment: Thanks! I liked your reviews - and your zine! And no, I have never read Moby Dick. :)
