  1. someone you won't know says:

    you should read ‘Einstein’s Dreams’ by Alan Lightman. As a fellow poet, I believe your mind will be changed. Also check out the poetry of Li-Young Lee, with a focus on ‘The City in Which I Love You’.

    Oooooh boy, I’m gonna warn you now: Tolstoy is *rough*! I’ve been trying to finish ‘Anna Karenina’ for years! You have many of the same books on your to-read list as I do!

  3. Ballz says:

    P.S. I Love You…

    I believe every woman should read that book! You’ll fly through it…

    The Things They Carried and all of Mitch Albom’s books. I better stop for now. :)

      I’ve actually read O’Brien’s book! I’ll check the other two out. I need to find time to compile all the books I’ve read into a list! It would take ages!
