dang sticky keys

Now that I've pissed everybody off-
here's my top  5
 
Earth Abides by George R Stewart 
  classic 50's pre- sci fi.  The book's premise and some of the grislier bits turned up later in a best seller by a fellow who's name starts with Stephen Ki
 
The Unusual Life of Tristan Smith by Peter Carey
  one main charachter I can really identify with.
 
The Fresco by Sherri Tepper
  or any of her books, really
 
Capricornia
  which no-one has mentioned.  By the time I was thoroughly disgusted with this book, I realized I couldn't stop reading it because I actually cared  about the people in it.
 
Which just leaves room for what I'm reading now.
  go to  www.unequalprotection.com
book excerpts are free- and I for one will never haul myself through the whole thing.  What bugs me is that I've got one line of a song keeps running through my head as I read this, and I can't remember which song it is.
 
have a happy long weekend,
Jess
