I finally finished reading Son of a Witch. Should I jump right into A Lion Among Men, or switch it up? Other options include Hunger Games, Syrup, Fool, and The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Have you read Hunger Games yet? Do you want to have read it before the movies? Are you interested in the movie? Is Dragon Tattoo still in theatres--similar consideration there, if you care.
Just messaged a guy on OK Cupid. Not sure why. Hope that doesn't bite me in the ass.

My lawn flamingos would be hard to hold and too short, adding some of the challenges Alice faced, but attaching lawn flamingos to croquet mallets would easy.

Because books.
Hunger Games, aurelia. So good, and really fast, and Dragon Tattoo is a great story but a crappy book.

aurelia,
I would agree with Amy. If you are looking for something that you can speed through, I read the HG trilogy all in about 3-4 days.

I haven't read any of that list, and yeah, I probably do want to read before seeing the movies. I only have the first book, but I guess I'll go with Hunger Games.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
You can read the first book and then pause to acquire the second, but, for the sake of your mental health, have the third book on hand when you start the second.

ita, I've been emailing with a girl on OKCupid and she sounds pretty awesome on paper...but I went back to look at her profile again and realized I had somehow not noticed that she's only 5'1. I admit it's silly of me but I feel weird dating anyone who is more than a couple inches shorter or taller than me.

Thanks, DebetEsse. That's good to know.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Lee, I love the house! Yay!
