I forgot to do my book reports.


Recall I was waiting for Claudius The God to come in ...and took out I Claudius in the mean time.

I read magazines from back to front and sometimes will do this with books.I chose to start that way with I Claudius,but it was really bad. So I read from left to right---got to page 5 and couldn't handle it anymore.

Claudius The God was worse...only got to the top of page 3.


But Matterhorn was an A book...very,very good. When We Were Soldiers....and Young was an A#1 doubleplus great book.A Haunting in Cambria had it's few moments,but was a C-.A Shoot in Cleveland was about the same...maybe a C.I reread Legion for like the 8th time.Still an A+.The Great Deluge was very good...A.


Read one about the Gallo Bros....mainly about CrazyJoe.Called the Mad...somethings.Liked it---a B.


Iceman
was entertaining,but a lot was hard to swallow.....C+.

A Rocky Marciano bio was pretty good....B-.



Tried MobyDick....could not take that old English style of language....after I forced my way through about 100 pages, I couldn't stand it anymore.



AWFUL!!



Am on about 160 or so of Catcher In The Rye.

Don't know if I'll finish..it really sucks.

I think that's all of them of late.





I did check out two today...on instinct.

Jesus
and The Wisdom of a Broken Heart.



They'll probably suck,too.
