Subject: RE: BS: A different kind of 'GREAT BOOK' thread.
If you like humor, read Pat McManus. "How I got this way" "The Bear In The Attic" "Real Ponies Don't Go Oink" or any of his stuff. Growing up, hunting, fishing, camping, outdoors.

I sort of suspect that you won't be wanting anything toooooo serious.

I also like "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and 'most any collection of reasonably good poetry. But then, I've been known to read the covers on rolls of toilet paper, too.

Another thought is recorded books, especially if the chemo is draining your strength. A headset, a player, and Jim Dale reading Harry Potter....
