Here&#039;s some awful truth, I have&#039;t read To Kill a Mockingbird, and now it&#039;s probably too late. I heard so much praise about it, there&#039;s now way I will catch up and see it the way others did.]]></description>

I&#039;m really not sure about Handmaid&#039;s sequel,.. certainly it will be successful though.  Remember when Harper Lee&#039;s &#039;lost&#039; book was published... it was disappointing both as a book on its own and as a sequel. I know a lot of people enjoyed it, I didn&#039;t.]]></description>

I&#039;m happy I actually noticed that one phrase only, but I noticed it big time. I was really disappointed then because Don transformed into something else completely at that moment.]]></description>

I don&#039;t remember how she wrote the sequels. If they were planned ahead, or she started writing them when the first books got famous already. I think this factor plays a role in how good the sequel will be. When there&#039;s already a notion of the next book, even if it&#039;s just an idea of it, I think it can work out fine. But when a book is born ONLY because a previous one was a success, more often than not, it won&#039;t be anything worthwhile. That&#039;s why, by the way, I think the sequel to The Handmaid&#039;s Tale that has been recently announced won&#039;t match the quality of the initial story.]]></description>

Yes, it is very funny, it&#039;s funny in a perfect way. No silly, flirty humour, just the right kind. I have never noticed this about ice-cream flavours though, but now I don&#039;t eat any ice-cream at all, so I can&#039;t check. I&#039;m sure they have different taste. Why would it be otherwise? :)]]></description>

Thank you for the recommendation! It does sound interesting. I&#039;ll look it up!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I really loved The Rosie Project :) yes, it has flaws, but it&#039;s SUCH a good laugh. If you liked it, I can recommend Attachments by Rainbow Rowell - it had a similar vibe and some similar themes, but was maybe deeper in some of areas :)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Yayyy!!! So glad you liked this book! I love it so much. Do you know that I still think about ice cream flavors and if we really taste them after awhile? LOL. (Of course we do. At least, I definitely do.) That recounted dating mishap struck me as hysterical when I was reading, and it totally stayed with me. I also had my moments of laughing out loud--usually on a busy commuter train! Some guy looked at me once when it happened and was like &quot;That must be a pretty funny book.&quot; I was like, Dude, you have no idea! :-)]]></description>
