What Books Did the Houseguests Read???
Eaglemagic | Friday, September 29, 2000 - 07:20 am  Besides Jamie's THE ART OF WAR, what other books did you see the HG's read? Just curious - I have always wondered what their tastes were (since I am a big book lover). |
Max | Friday, September 29, 2000 - 07:42 am  Eddie read Josh's copy of "Wizards and Glass" by Stehphen King. It's the fourth in a series of a complex story. I'd be lost picking it up on it's own, but he liked it. I think it was Josh's book. Eddie also read "Cold Mountain". Don't know the author. Another best seller, but I remember him saying he didn't like it as well. It's set in Civil War times and, I think, a bit of a love story. Cassandra was reading "The Poisonwood Bible" whose author escapes me right now. I have this one, but haven't had a chance to start it yet. It's been a best seller for a long time and then made Oprah's summer reading list, so it's quite popular. Karen read "White Oleander", another Oprah book club selection that, I think, was Cassandra's. Those are the only ones I picked up on. Might have been others. Eddie has mentioned that this is the first time he's really enjoyed reading for pleasure. I'm always glad when people start to enjoy good books! Hope he keeps on reading. |
Lynnseamonkey | Friday, September 29, 2000 - 10:52 am  Curtis finished "A Civil Action" the other day.. interesting true story about a complex lawsuit. (it later became a movie starring John Travolta). the Poisonwood Bible is by Barbara Kingsolver, who had a huge following before Oprah "discovered" her. |
Wendy | Friday, September 29, 2000 - 11:02 am  Jamie also brought some self-help books including "Don't Sweat The Small Stuff" and "One Day My Soul Just Opened Up". She also brought (I believe it was) a book of poems by Maya Angelou (sp) and Mother Teresa. And of course, there was Jordan and her dictionary. |
Poohbear5770 | Friday, September 29, 2000 - 11:24 am  Eddie brought a book of quotes that they all seemed to read. Anyone catch the name? I'd like to buy a copy. |
Ginap | Friday, September 29, 2000 - 12:08 pm  Curtis brought his Bible! I think Josh is the one who brought the question book (the would you rather do this or that one) |
Jade888 | Friday, September 29, 2000 - 12:18 pm  I also saw Curtis reading "The Color of Water" by James McBride...love the book and the man! |
