So I finally read "Fountainhead" by Ayne Rand. I have to admit, when I added it to the list it was just because everyone kept telling me to. Yet I had no idea how this was going to happen given that I've never read a book that long.
I know, it's sad. But I'm a lightweight when it comes to reading. So, I saw the size of the book and thought there was no F-ing way I was going to read that thing!
The answer? I bought a Kindle. It's easy to use, easy on the eyes, cheaper than ever and BEST OF ALL, it's thin. So thin I had no idea how long the book way. So no intimidation factor. I zipped through the book and finished this past weekend. So now I've read a novel other than Harry Potter. Yeah, I'm all grows up.
So now the big question, what do we all think of the book, the message and whether it holds true to today? I would love your comments to be like a little reading club. Okay everyone? After that, we'll all get some cosmos, okay?
Becoming middle aged was never such fun!
It's also on my reading list but I haven't read it yet. I'm not usually too intimidated by the length of books; if it's good and captures my attention, then I can get through a 900 page book faster than a 200 page book that isn't very interesting.
ReplyDeleteSorry I couldn't be part of the cool club and participate in the Reading Group. I'll help get the cosmos.
