since i've pretty much been full tilt into fantasy land reading/viewing/living lately i thought it might be good for the normal side of my brain to read something that lives more in the world of reality and i picked 'the god of small things' cause some people say it's good and i'm just.loving.it.
it's beautifully written and smart and rich in detail and history and funny and heartbreaking and i don't want to liken it to something cause its really it's own creature but if i must i would say a tad like kite runner but really better even. more vivid. alive.
last night i was reading the reviews for it, (which jeremy always makes a funny face about cause he thinks i'm going to find out things i shouldn't), and everyone was saying good things and using words like 'magical' and 'indelible' and i'm not even really sure what that last word means but it sounds clever and cheeky. like all the sentences in this book.
