my current book addiction this year started with Mineko Iwasako’s “Geisha, a Life”, then came “The Devil and Miss Prym” by Paulo Coelho. I had to bribe my younger brother to get my hands on Haruki Murakami’s “After Dark”, then Audrey Niffenger’s “The Time-Traveler’s Wife”, Stephanie Meyer’s “Twilight” saga, Ann Brashares’ “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” series, reread Meg Cabot’s “Teen Idol”, stopped on page 20 of Kazuo Ishiguro’s “Remains of the Day” and now, devouring Chuck Palahniuk’s “Rant”.
