Music Addicts Annonymous 12 years agoI know this is old hat, but does anyone want to process their feelings on Age of Adz by Sufjan?
I still have a lot of feelings.

Autostraddle Summer Book Club 2011 12 years ago@internrachel and @julia1
Hmm, there seem to be several comments about Book Club being over – I hope it’s not. I don’t really want Book Club to ever end. Anyway I’m going to tell you about the book I finished this morning anyway, it was ’How To Be A Woman’ by Caitlin Moran (313 pages).
Caitlin Moran is a pretty well-known British journalist…[Read more] -

Music Addicts Annonymous 12 years agoAny Nerdcore lovers out there? I saw MC Frontalot at Cafe Du Norde last night. Sooo dorky, soooo good. I was in the front row and he played this third in his set.

Autostraddle Summer Book Club 2011 12 years agoI hope summer isn’t completely over @internrachel and @julia1 because I have some books to report on. Like a bunch, I went on a YA kick the past week and the library has been really good about processing my holds fast. Here is the list: Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson (288 pgs.), Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher (336 pgs.), Before I Fall by…[Read more]

Autostraddle Summer Book Club 2011 12 years ago@internrachel @julia1 Is the book club over? Anyway I finished On the Road by Jack Kerouac (304 pages), I liked it for all the reasons everyone likes it and hated the misogyny/homophobia.
Also just finished Lost in Shangri-La: A True Story of Survival, Adventure, and the Most Incredible Rescue Mission of World War II by Mitchell Zuckoff (400…[Read more] -

Autostraddle Summer Book Club 2011 12 years agoToday I finished Mary Ann In Autumn by Armistead Maupin (287 pages) and Crush by Carrie Mac (106 pages). Mary Ann In Autumn goes back to the usual multiple perspectives and morbid storylines of the Tales of the City novels, but it did have Jake befriending a Mormon gay man, which was my favorite of the perspectives in the novel. Crush was sort…[Read more]

Hello book club. Over the weekend, I finished She Bop II by Lucy O’Brien, a 530 page guide to women in music. You should only read this if you have hours and hours of free time and a comfortable pair of headphones; half the fun is listening to all the bands and singers mentioned. The writing style is accessible and…[Read more] -

Autostraddle Summer Book Club 2011 12 years agoJust finished The Cannibal Galaxy by Cynthia Ozick (162 pgs).
Cynthia Ozick is one of my favorite authors, but this is the first novel by her I’ve read—she mostly writes shorts stories and essays. Even so, this barely counts as a novel—it’s more of a novella, really.
The book’s about a French Jew, Joseph Brill, who escapes WWII and founds a…[Read more] -

I just finished Willa Cather’s THE SONG OF THE LARK (313 pages). I’ve been reading a lot of Cather, and this kind of slots in as not-my-favourite (My Antonia) but also not-my-least-favourite (Sapphira and the Slave Girl). I read somewhere that she really liked and was initially influenced by James, and in some ways I thought…[Read more] - Load More
