The Bell Jar
This marks the second book I have read this summer and truly enjoyed, the first being "Life of Pi". The Bell Jar may be femlit, but it's GOOD femlit, "The Devil Wears Prada" but with a spine or, to be decidedly un-feminist, balls. It managed to be quick and witty without becoming trite, and really explores themes above and beyond the run-of-the-mill story, but in a more accessible way than, say, "The Awakening". Just good, depressing fun.
By the way, I'm going to Hawaii for a week on Tuesday. Any advice/suggestions welcome!
