We Should Hang Out Sometime: A “Review”

By Daniela Puliti on 27/06/2015

Rating: 1/5…Unless, Can I give zero? Why I chose the book: The masochist that I am often likes to read about other people’s dating trials and tribulations perhaps in search of some solace of the “it gets better” variety. What I expected: From the title I thought this was going to be a story about

The Lovely Bones – Alice Sebold (book #2)

By captainmamadish on 27/06/201527/06/2015

Wow. There was once a hollow place in my heart where the dead took pieces to create more caverns. These caverns are temporarily covered with a warm blanket that is The Lovely Bones. The Lovely Bones is not for the faint of heart as it covers every woman’s worst nightmare of rape and unsolved murder

Thoughts on The First Bad Man by Miranda July (Book #2)

By borkali on 27/06/201527/06/2015

Overall rating: 2.5/5 Ok, so to be totally honest, I have no idea where the fuck to begin with this book.  So this is just kind of a battery of comments: 1) I enjoyed July’s collection of short stories (No One Belongs Here More Than You).  However, in contrast, I think this book tries wayyyyyy

Paper Towns by John Green (book #1)

By captainmamadish on 27/06/201527/06/2015

I bulldozed through this book. I don’t know if it was because we hadn’t gotten Internet yet or John Green is that good of a story teller. Although it did keep my interest (which is difficult on a 3 month old’s schedule), I didn’t like the overall outcome of the story. As my sister put

By captainmamadish on 26/06/2015

I’ve been reading, I swear it!! I accepted this challenge for 2 reasons: 1. I’m traveling for the summer and have no TV 2. In having no TV but having internet, I want to make sure I don’t spend the whole summer in a YouTube wormhole, which so often happens to us all. OH! and

Thoughts on Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan (Book #1)

By borkali on 24/06/2015

Overall rating: 3.5/5 Last night I stayed up later than I should have finishing this page turner. This novel was a fun and easy read– definitely a nice way to ease into this challenge, and a wonderful book for the beach or sitting on your porch in the evening. The story is about a guy,

First Book of the Challenge

By Daniela Puliti on 23/06/2015

Just a quick introduction. I’m a recent recipient of my MFA in Painting. I’ve had to read a lot of dense material in preparation of my thesis, although I slid in some fun titles to add context to my playful and humorous approach to art making. When I was invited to participate in this collective,
