Wow! It’s been months since I’ve had the motivation to blog. Why have I been away for so long? Well, first, I accidentally deleted the database that held all my posts from the Soju Sonsangnim days. Second, I’ve been fixated on the idea that my posts have to focus on life here in South Korea. Really, I’ve said all that can possibly be said about life here in Sparkling Korea. Finally, I’ve been too busy reading to even think about blogging.
Seriously, I’ve had my nose buried in books for the past two months. Here is a list of the books I’ve read in the past three or four weeks:
- Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell
- Blink, Malcolm Gladwell*
- Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell
- Yiddish Policemen’s Union, Michael Chabon*
- The Reader, Bernhard Schlink*
- To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee*
- Exiles, Ron Hansen*
- Child of God, Cormac McCarthy*
- Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury*
- The Giver, Lois Lowry*
- Brida, Paulo Coehlo
- Revolutionary Road, Richard Yates*
- Atonement, Ian McEwan*
- Saturday, Ian McEwan
- Child 44, Tom Rob Smith
The sad thing is, I probably forgot some books. Half our books are buried in a suitcase in one of two spare rooms, so I can only go off of the ones currently residing on our new bookshelf. Clearly, I have the reading bug. I should probably start a blog for book reviews because that would give me a decent excuse to start blogging again.
If you’re looking for a decent read, check out any of the starred books on that list.
