Freedom---the Book

          At one point, I got his earlier book The Corrections as a gift.  I was not in the right mood at the time to read it. Now it's buried in some bookcase. (I think.)

           However, there's a lot of hoopla over his newest Freedom.  I hate to be left out, so sometime soon, I will probably be hitting a bookstore to pick up a copy.

          I read an excerpt of Jonathan Franzen's book . It sounds like something I might enjoy.

          Has anyone out there read it?  If so, what did you like/not like about it?Thumbs up or thumbs down?

  1. Hey Sioux! Back when Corrections first came out, and I was still dumb enough to think Oprah's book choices MUST be mahhhvelous....I went out and bought the hardcover. I couldn't even get past the first few pages. Maybe the same way you felt at the time? I think I wound up donating it to the library! I thought I might like this new one, though...But I'm definitely not going to buy it!
