A book that came out a few years ago "Drowning Ruth" is a great one that I could not put down. I haven't found much newer stuff that I can get into.
I've TRIED to read classic lit, believe me. I received recommendations for 'Tender is the Night' and got EXTREMELY bored after pg 40ish. Started reading 'Exit to Eden' but never finished it. I DID like it though so at some point I want to go back and finish it. Not sure if that's the book I want to read post-op . I bought 'Lolita' because a friend recommended it but I haven't picked it up, yet. One of my friends in grad school recommended a ton--Pride and Prejudice, Atlas Shrugged, The Fountainhead (she liked Ayn Rand) but after she told me that she LOVED 'Great Expectations' and I wasn't a fan, I was a bit skeptical about her recommendations LOL
I guess I'm not TOTALLY anti-classics because there are a few that I liked but I'm just not sure I can get into them post-op. What did you have in mind?
