The Forbidden Tuesday List
Welcome to this week’sTuesday List. If it’s forbidden, shouldn’t reading it give you some sort of naughty thrill? No? Oh, well. I tried.
The next Cover to Cover book is The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde, so please join me for a discussion of this book on June 22, 2007 (that’s this Friday.) If you have suggestions for books that you would like to see discussed in a future Cover to Cover, feel free to comment any time with your titles. Another A Book By Any Other Name challenge has begun this week. The goal is even higher this time around. If you wish to participate, just take a look at Monday’s post.
Have you been reading anything interesting lately? Please comment and let me know. And now, my current list:
The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde - This is the book for the next Cover to Cover. It’s quite interesting so far.
Collected Poems by T. S. Elliot - Some of his poems are really quite extraordinary.
British English A to Zed by Norman W. Schur - *grin*
Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History of Time: A Reader’s Companion edited by Stephen Hawking - I managed a whole few more pages this week.
Doctor Who: The Inside Story by Gary Russell - So very sonic.
Oh, hey! I would like to remind you all that The Book Stacks is up for a Blogger’s Choice Award, so if you would be so kind as to pop along and vote for me, I’d be much obliged.

Didn’t realize you had a book blog as well as the dr. who blog. I’ll have to come back. Since you ask, I’m currently reading The Inheritance of Loss - not as all-encompasingly depressing as I feared it would be from the title, if not exactly the happiest book I’ve read and beautifully descriptive.
Is the Eyre Affair anything like the Thirteenth Tale? Sounds similarly Bronteesque.

Well, I haven’t read the Thirteenth Tale, but from the description I’d say that The Eyre Affair is a bit more Sci Fi than it is.
Welcome to The Book Stacks, steve!
