    "Brilliant" - Rachel Vail
    Good, realistic book about a teen girl who struggles to find out if she really is as brilliant as everyone else believes she is. A fun read.

    "Holes" by Louis Sachar. I didn't like it much: extremely happy endings are not my thing.

    I just finished "Love in the time of Cholera" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

    The story itself is not really that interesting, sort of like a mix-mash of Wuthering Heights, Anna Karenina and D.H. Lawrence. But oh my goodness, was the writing beautiful! It's like reading poetry in prose :grin:


    I'll be starting "Atonement" by Ian McEwan tonight, then take a break before I read "A Hundred Years of Solitude".

    Hope you enjoy both of those! I've been interested in reading both, but especially the latter. Have wanted to dive into Marquez for a long time but never got around to it.

    Two Graves by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child — #12 in the enigmatic Agent Aloysius Pendergast series. The series had been drifting a bit, but this book closed up a lot of loose ends and set the stage for some (hopefully) engaging future stories. Looking forward to Pendergast getting "back to normal"...
