Jonathan Safran Foer

Hi everyone! Kim D. here. Ok so I know that we haven't really started in with "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" yet, however I just have to put the comment up to say I loved this book! I am so grateful to the powers-that-be over at the DBC who chose this book. I finished it in 2 1/2 days. It is so refreshing to finally have a book that I would read in my spare time as a book that I have to study. Hands down it was so much better than the monkey book...err.. "Primates Memoir".
With that said I get to the point of why I am posting this. The first novel written by Jonathan Safran Foer is titled "Everything is Illuminated". I just recently took this book out of my local library for the sole fact that I really love his style of writing.
So my fellow Foer fans, if you like his style then I seriously suggest checking this other book out for reading in your spare time. You will not be disappointed. The style of writing, the bluntness, and the humor are well worth it. I am only about a quarter way into the book and I can't put it down, nor can I stop laughing. Happy Reading!!
