Quote of the Week

"Normally seven minutes of another person's company was enough to give her a headache so she set things up to live as a recluse. She was perfectly content as long as people left her in peace. Unfortunately society was not very smart or understanding."

-Steig Larsson, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo
-Or, "Why I Fell in Love Lisbeth Salander" by the Rochester Reader

  3. So those books are worth the read, eh? Might have to add them to the queue, which has gotten quite lengthy lately. Just finished Game Change - good stuff, that.

  4. I think so. The first one is better than the second one. Starts in one place and winds up somewhere else. Haven't read the third one yet. Loaded it onto my Kindle though.

  5. Ok I am with Brian. Wasn't sure about checking those out but I like the quote and if you say that at least the first is worth reading that is good for me. I am hustling through the new Grisham book currently.

  6. I was reluctant at first, as well. Then I started reading and couldn't put it down. Try it yourself then tell me what you think.
