The Professor and the Madman: A Tale of Murder, Insanity and the Making of the Oxford English Dictionary by Simon Winchester
3.0
Non-fiction that reads like fiction. A good read for those who like to learn while reading (also great for word-lovers!)
The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory by Brian Greene
4.0
I just love this book because I love string theory. Not really something you'd take to the beach and read. But the pictures and examples do make the science simpler and easy to understand.
The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood
4.0
Kind of confusing, but I love the connections and the story within a story story.
The Hours by Michael Cunningham
3.0
Everyone who's read "Mrs. Dalloway" should read this too even though I didn't really either much.
To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf
4.0
My favorite Virginia Woolf book. You have to be in a Woolf mood to read it though. It is very quotable and she's the expert in getting into people's minds.
Citizen Girl by Emma McLaughlin, Nicola Kraus
1.0
I wish I didn't finish reading this, but I always try to finish everything. Biggest waste of time. Ever.
The Stranger by Albert Camus
4.0
I obviously don't believe in existentialism and the other philosophies in this book, but it was very insightful and I liked Camus's writing style.
