Christie's Top 100 Book

I'm still working on The Beautiful and Damned. I'm a bit over halfway through and I'm kind of ready for it to be over. It seems like a lot of the same stuff keeps happening, although I am definnitely more into it now that I've had time to sit down quietly and read without sleep beckoning me. I'm not really bored with the story line, but I just wish a wrench would get thrown in or something... although that may have just happened in my last bit of reading. We'll see where it goes from here!

And I must say, the way the people live in this book is crazy to me. They party all the time and barely anyone seems to work... and work is typically writing. Sounds like an easy life to me... though all that partying must be tiring and bad for your health. Ha! :)

  1. Eating and writing? Sounds like my dream life!

  2. Another book sort of with a same theme? "A Moveable Feast" by Ernest Hemingway. Hemingway talks about Fitzgerald in the book, actually. Can you imagine living in that period of time?
