I'm loving it, I'm really loving it.. Its a "I can't put it down book"!! I have a rule that I never read during the day (else I would getting *nothing* done, and I have to restrict how much I read for money reasons!!) but I can hear Garp calling me!! Garp.. Garp..
I'm going exchange my copy of Garp for "Cider House Rules" or "The Hotel New Hampshire"
It was this board that turned me onto Irving.. remember when "Prayer for Owen Meany" was our book of the month?!!
But then I discoered Ian McEwen, and went on a side track of reading his books.. and forgot to return to Irving.. but thats a good thing cos I have all those books of his to read now!! Yay!! I get so excited when I find an author I love, that writes books of a decent length (McEwens books tend to be a bit short for me!!), and has a nice back catalogue for me to work through!!
Will let you know when I finish it.. give me about a week or so!
