Måsten, borden och viljor

"Små springor som värmen tränger ut ur" av Ulrika Nielsen XXX½
En självbiografisk historia där huvudpersonen Irene berättar om sitt liv. Hennes alkoholiserade pappa har just dött, och man får glimtar av både nutid och dåtid på ett trevligt sätt. Jag skulle knappast ha hittat boken annars, men en vän till mig visade den och kommenterade den som en bok som handlar negativt om hennes släkt. Eftersom jag alltså tycker om denna vän, kunde jag inte förhålla mig objektivt till boken - jag tycker ju om en person ur den släkt som författaren dels smutskastar i boken.
Men i alla fall tyckte jag att boken var trevligt skriven, och att det var nätt hur kärleken till fadern ändå sken igenom.

Igår började Galna Dagar på Stockmann och Akademiska Bokhandeln. Hittade en hel del, bl.a. tre pocketböcker (förmånliga!):
The Elephant Vanishes av Haruki Murakami
Isprinsessan av Camilla Läckberg
Hon som tittade in av Karin Wahlberg
Har någon läst någon av dessa?

Snart publiceras namnet på årets Nobelpristagare i litteratur. Jag har inga gissningar att komma med, jag hoppas bara på att ha hört talas om författaren...
Nu borde jag verklilgen sätta igång med skolarbete, olika litteraturanalyser etc. Men först lunch =).

Läser just nu: Vet inte riktigt, har några böcker på gång och många jag skulle vilja läsa. Borde sätta igång med Pappan och havet av Tove Jansson, samt läsa vidare i En världsomsegling under havet av Jules Verne. Detta är måsten, men sedan skulle jag kanske också vilja läsa något just for fun... =)

Om du inte redan läste den kan jag varmt rekommendera "Shadow of the WInd" av Carlos Ruiz Zafon!

Bokbabbel sa...

Jag har läst den, älskade den! Ljuvlig! =)
Tack, jag tar gärna emot boktips, men det är inte mitt största problem just nu att hitta böcker att läsa, utan snarare veta vilken bok jag skall börja med ;)
Grymt irriterande med dessa spam! hur kan jag avlägsna sådana?

Jag tror att jag har läst "The Elephant Vanishes", men det var rätt länge sen. Det är noveller va? Just den novellen som heter som boken är rätt underlig, men jag gillar Murakami. :)

Bokbabbel sa...

Jep, det är noveller. Nu gick jag dock och lånade "Sputnik Sweetheart" från bibban, så jag läser troligen den först. Hoppas jag tycker om författaren, såg att han har skrivit en hel del böcker :)

Anonym sa...

Sputnik Sweetheart, den har jag. :) Men den är ännu inte läst... Nästa Murakami jag läser blir troligen Kafka On the Shore. Biblioteksbok.

Bokbabbel sa...

Sputnik verkar bra, läste lite igår kväll då jag borde ha gjort annat ;)

Hi there Magix,
Just to give you a heads up, you're probably going to get some more comments on this post: this post. I found you when I was out looking for the latest info about rash guards products, and even though this doesn't relate to rash guards, I still had to stop and tell you that you're doing a great job. You're about to get some visits from my brother and sister. I told them about your blog so I hope you don't mind.

Magix this is great!
It's funny how I was looking for this type of thing and found your post: this post. It pulled me right out of my research on surf rash guards products and allowed me to sit down for a nice read. Thanks for your great job Magix. I think I'll hang out on your blog for a while and be done with surf rash guards stuff for now. Have a good day Magix.

Magix, this has got to stop! People like you are doing a great job on their blogs yet people still manage to junk them up with spammy comments. I've given up, one of my blogs is getting destroyed with the clutter of these comments. Oh well, I guess there's still a lot to enjoy. My sports rash guards site is starting to be a better investment of my time. It's easy to maintain, there's a lot of information on sports rash guards out there so I'm not having much trouble there. I don't know what to do... You're doing such a great job and I wish my blogs were like yours!

Thanks for letting me post.

Hi Magix, I'm over here in Hawaii on vacation and found a nice internet connection. I started searching blogs to get some ideas for my rash guards site, and fell into this excellent blog you have here. When I came on vacation I knew I'd get to surf the net, but I didn't think I'd get treat like this. The only good blogs are ones with owners like you, actually putting energy into them. Okay, just wanted to say hi and 'you're awesome' - better get back to my rash guards research...

good day ~~~

Magix, I need a little inspiration... I've read your post 'this post', I enjoyed it so I decided to comment. I've been thinking about my blog and how there are all these people posting strange comments there. Maybe you understand, I'm not sure, but it's tiring to read the numbers of comments that don't have much to do with my stuff. My normal rashguards website never suffers this because it just sells rashguards and isn't a blog. Do you have any ideas for how to stop the cluttering of non-relevant comments? Thanks for your great blog. Tips are always welcome...

good day -
