Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer
I really liked parts of Everything is Illuminated. Other parts, well, I could have done with out. Jonathan Safran Foer has a new book out, Eating Animals. Judging by the trailer, I could do without it as well. The clip just won a Moby award for worst trailer. It's sure no Pride and Prejudice and Sea Monsters!

It's Shocking
Absolutely unbelievable! How could I have forgotten to add Arrowsmith to our list of universally hated book club choices? Somehow, I'm sure it was a vast right wing conspiracy. Vote early, vote often:

The Pickwick Papers
Well, I suppose I could write a review of Dickens' "The Pickwick Papers". I think though, that a review of our discussion would be more instructive. We're going to have a vote for worst book club choice ever. Vote as often as you wish.
