oh yeah, sorry to inform you she’s already married so it will have to be strictly platonic. but yeah. just found her in a newspaper.

i don’t share her ideology, but she writes very well

Somehow over the last five or so years, based on conversation snippets and the odd extended pm-volley, you’ve come to know me almost eerily well.

_slavo_ · 02.16.2018, 03:31 AM

I like this book a lot.

zinn and the art of road bike maintenance

my bike is actually a hybrid i bought for the dc traffic, and the mountain bike repair book would be more fitting i suppose, but this one covers what i need to do so far.

And my own writing, which is actually getting an audience these days.

You read your own writing? Like... for fun?

jennthebenn · 03.01.2018, 03:17 PM

No, I read it because I'm writing it. Editing and all that.

Atomic City Girls by Janet Beard. Has a cool title and the synopsis sounded quite interesting. Focusing on the young women, many just out of high school who worked and lived in Oak Ridge, Tennessee in the same facility where American scientists were constructing the atomic bomb. Its historical fiction, but the book includes many actual photographs from the area. Enjoying it so far.

Rob Instigator · 03.02.2018, 02:35 PM

Just finished The Box Man by Kobo Abe, an extremely weird 1974 novel from Japan. http://rxttbooks.blogspot.com/2018/0...n-my-mind.html

LifeDistortion · 03.12.2018, 08:17 PM

Reading The Devil in the White City. I haven't heard any updates on the movie that is/was going to be directed by Martin Scorsese.

tw2113 · 03.12.2018, 08:45 PM

Finally finished The Two Towers this weekend. Up next, Return of the King.

!@#$%! · 03.12.2018, 08:52 PM

and yeah it has a good section on v brakes which the othe one lacks

pity it’s not on kindle! but i guess the paper format absorbs grease better.

Rob Instigator · 03.14.2018, 03:47 PM

Viv Albertine's Clothes, Clothes, Clothes. Music, Music, Music. Boys, Boys, Boys, a really good read, sounding so honest.
