reads from Halloween on past Solstice

167. Tokyo Fiance by Amelie Nothomb (Dear Amelie Nothomb, I'm in love with you...)

168. Frazz: Live at Bryson Elementry by Jeff Mallett (comics)

169. 99% Perspiration: a Frazz Collection by Jeff Mallett (comics)

170. Pretty Dead by Francesca Lia Block

171. The Elegance of the Hedgehog (re)

172. Anticrista by Amelie Nothomb (not one of her best, but it will do for a fix if you're already addicted to her)

173. The Life of Hunger by Amelie Nothomb (wonderful)

174. Sulpheric Acid by Amelie Nothomb (another fix)

175. The Most Beautiful Book in the World: Eight Novellas by Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt

176. Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins (Hunger Games, book 2)

177. My Life in France by Julia Child with Alex Prud'homme

178. Switch Bitch by Roald Dahl

179. When Wanderers Cease to Roam: a traveler's journal of staying put by Vivian Swift

180. The Life of Hunger by Amelie Nothomb (re. Yes, it was that good.)

181. The Secret Lives of Men & Women: a Post Secret book edited by Frank Warren

182. Her Fearful Symmetry by Andrey Niffenegger (graveyards. the identity crisis of twinness. what could love be like in extreme enough situations?)

183. Boy: Tales of Childhood by Roald Dahl

184. The Twelve Dancing Princesses by Nancy Madore (not recommended. a self-help book in a harlot's disguise.)

185. The Mystery of Grace by Charles de Lint (wonderful & without the "too many characters, doing too many things in unrealted places" problem he sometimes stumbles into.)

186. Lust & other stories by Susan Minot (not as over the top & skull-excavating as Rapture, but not bad. it's easy to see how this kind of writing was laying ground for Evening & Rapture.)

187. Still Life by Irving Penn (photos)

188. The Best Time to Do Everything by Michael Kaplan
