Last night I (re)started Black House. I know I'm going to dig it this time.
All the way to the cellar?

Hahahahaha! I had a patient bring me this movie and tell me I remind him of this scene. It was the first time I had seen it. I hope he was joking.......Is it safe?
I felt like Hoffman a couple of days ago in that scene. They were supposed to take out a wisdomtooth (me and wisdom, thats a laugh!) but it broke during the attempt and the the part thats is stuck in the jawbone was left. They pulled, and pulled until they pulled me out of the chair. Said i had very strong jawbone that didn't want to release the tooth as usual. They couldn't do it and remitted me to a Jaw chirurg at the hospital. It seems it cant stay, infections and such... So now i await a summon to an operation. Can't say i'm looking forward to it.Hahahahaha! I had a patient bring me this movie and tell me I remind him of this scene. It was the first time I had seen it. I hope he was joking.......
What leads you to think that The Giver is a bad book?Just finished "The Giver". Stay away, people. Gosh, why are bad books so popular?
The Year of the Flood is the second book in a trilogy, and if you don't read the first one, Oryx & Crake, you'll be a bit lost and miss out on a lot. That said, the trilogy is an epic dystopian work of fiction and taken all together is quite wonderful.Talking about Margaret Atwood.... I have her The Year of the Flood in my TBR-pile. Is it a good one? Have only read one of hers before, i think.
Didn't know that. Thanks for the tip! I'll try to find the first one then.The Year of the Flood is the second book in a trilogy, and if you don't read the first one, Oryx & Crake, you'll be a bit lost and miss out on a lot.

You just persuaded me. I have ordered the rest of the trilogy. Sounds like just the kind of stuff i like. Will get them next week, then.....The Year of the Flood is the second book in a trilogy, and if you don't read the first one, Oryx & Crake, you'll be a bit lost and miss out on a lot.

They probably have to wait until Revival is off the table. But then there is probably room for a nice little dystopic trilogy (or whatever you should call it). Atwood is an author i've glanced at for many years without really doing anything about it. If i like these and her writingstyle is there some others of her books that can be recommended?I thought The Year of the Flood was the strongest of the three, but I liked them all. Oryx & Crake is probably my least favorite of the three, but it was obviously good enough that I read the other two MaddAddam was interesting, and wrapped it up well.
