Moving On...

I finished up Atonement. Interesting. A good read once I got into it. The construction of the story was interesting but I feel cheated the way I did with Life of Pi. Can't say more or I'd give it away.

I am now reading The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. It is another book I am reading in anticipation of a movie release. What can I say? I like to read the book first.

Inspired by Movie?

I finished up Cornwell's Book of the Dead. More mythology of the world and less compelling murder to solve so it was strictly for the die-hard Scarpetta fan.

I picked up Atonement by Ian McEwan and I have started reading that since I have seen the movie advertised so much. It is likely going to be nominated for an Oscar if the buzz is correct so I thought I would check it out in print first. I am likely going to pick up I am Legend in print now that I have seen the movie. So, there is something good that comes from movie adaptations of novel. Some people actually use that to motivate reading the book. That's why I read The Hours...
