I keep a lookout for a review on your blog :)<br /><br />Shelley, I haven't read Alias Grace but I'm starting to think I should probably read all of Atwood's novels at some time.<br /><br />Katie, I'm happy to hear you like my small teaser quotes! I usually post one after I'm 100 or so pages in. I'm even happier I've inspired you to do the same!Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10780185535345559390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6331403748871569013.post-85398059701096217962010-08-25T07:03:01.170-05:002010-08-25T07:03:01.170-05:00Brenna, I have been anxious to read a wonderful &q...Brenna, I have been anxious to read a wonderful "grown up" book for a while now and I think Oryx and Crake may be the one for me... I just finished reading your full review and it sounds amazing! I wanted to post under your mini-review b/c I LOVE all of your part-way-through-the-book, fabulous quote, teaser intros to your current reads. They always get me looking forward to reading your final review a few days later. I actually thought of you when I just posted the S. Alexie quote from the very beginning of TADoaP-TI! Thanks for the inspiration :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10236275337479478234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6331403748871569013.post-64294838619017146482010-08-24T22:03:02.918-05:002010-08-24T22:03:02.918-05:00I'm so glad you visited my blog so I could dis...I'm so glad you visited my blog so I could discover yours!

I loved that quote you included - definitely piqued my interest with regards to this book. Hmmm...I haven't read it yet, but I've been meaning to place it higher on my TBR list and then follow it with Year of the Flood...hmmm.

I am participating in a read along that starts next week, and I've been biting my nails in anticipation of the start! I had heard Oryx and Crake to be fantastic as well, and I'm all atwitter and aflutter -- I'm ready to read some Atwood, I've never read her work before! (I know, I'm embarrassed by that!) :)Natalie~Coffee and a Book Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369504951819517390noreply@blogger.com
