Rhon-a-logue: Leave no book unfinished.

A faithful list of all the books I read (starting in January, 2005). Starting October 2007, also includes reviews and opinions from the sister who started it all with her attempt at Christmas 2004 to recall all the books she had read that year. Now you can find out exactly what we think about everything we read.

The Girls

The Girls - Lori Lansens

Great! Canadian novel about conjoined twins. So it has the depressing ending, but lots of vivid details along the way. It's written from alternating points of view, so each of the girls develops her own identity through the course of the novel. Like Couchwarmer, it has its own freak-show novelty sex act, but fortunately, overcomes it.

This was a Book Expo treasure, lent first to my big little sister, then read by me, then lent to my Can Lit loving sister-in-law. Highly recommended.

June 2006.
