And the 5 pages I've read I've enjoyed. I'm interested to hear that you like the Peter Carey, Karen, I haven't read a lot of positive things!! But I intend to get there!!Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11106569383402671571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4822724042328177051.post-26647500211118096892010-09-08T20:38:25.977+10:002010-09-08T20:38:25.977+10:00I have read the Peter Carey and really enjoyed it ...I have read the Peter Carey and really enjoyed it (which surprised me because I am not usually a Carey fan).

Of the three I've read on the shortlist (Room, Long Song & In a Strange Room), I enjoyed all three. Room is far and away my favorite, and I truly hope it wins. I'm looking forward to reading the other three too. Enjoy!nomadreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04795144320842413060noreply@blogger.com
