Someone We Liked

I think Bill Bryson's "A Walk in the Woods" was pretty popular. Maybe when it comes out in paperback we'd like to consider his latest, "At Home". I've heard a review on NPR and read one in the Chronicle.

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!
