The Secret History-Donna Tartt

I finally finished it. Hurrah
I had to review a book right in the middle of reading this one so I got distracted but Ive done my work and now finished The Secret History. What a fab book. Im now reading Lunar Park, and with that I think my brat pack boredom has sunk in. Give me gay pulp please. But not if I have to review it.

I looove looooooove the Secret History.

Are you not enjoying Lunar park? A couple of people I know started reading it & then stopped not far in because they thought it was too arrogant. Persist with it though, it gets much better. I persuaded these people to keep reading it & they all ended up really enjoying it.

I plan to read it again some day, my shitting ex boyfriend lost my copy though

I looooooooooooved Secret History. So much so that a friend gave me an unedited proof of The Little Friend. Which alas is vastly inferior.

i agree about the little friend. i actually found it kind of boring, but i love the secret history. i just recently re-read it for at least the 6th time.

you don't like lunar park? it's a weird book, and not like his others at all. i love it though. but then i'm basically a b.e.e groupie, so i may be a little biased.

The little friend is seriously my favourite book ever, but I can see why lots of people prefer the secret history over it, I guess it can be a little dull at times, but I'm so in love with the characters & scenery in the Little friend
