 I just started getting into it and so far, after a few pages, it's really really GOOD!  As you can tell, I don't think that I've ever contributed to this thread which means that I [span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;"]rarely[/span] read.  LOL, my guy recommended me this book.  I'll tell you how it is when I'm done. :)

 It's a hilarious narrative and a great story.  Similar to Catcher in the Rye but with a My Big Fat Greek Wedding feel. ( I just found out that it's also an Oprah pick for Summer 2007.)

When is she retiring anyway, didn't she announce her retirement a few years back as some date in the future, can't remember now.

My book will arrive on Monday I think.

Schad speaks his mind......just like you speak your mind.  I thought you liked that?  As an advocate of non-conformity, I would have thought you would have some level of respect for that.
