I did however read State of Wonder last year and really liked it. There were still some oddities in it - like the strange ending - but for the most part it was good.Marghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508430635744720721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-13233159191099739762012-12-28T07:26:12.994-06:002012-12-28T07:26:12.994-06:00I liked Bel Canto but it was YEARS ago and I was o...I liked Bel Canto but it was YEARS ago and I was only reading about a book a month then, if that many. The Once Upon a Time Machine looks good, maybe I can twist Kelly's arm to send it to me after she reads it. :PCarehttp://bkclubcare.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-63511016501351237092012-12-25T04:02:15.301-06:002012-12-25T04:02:15.301-06:00Bel Canto was the first Patchett book I tried to r...Bel Canto was the first Patchett book I tried to read. Didn't work for me at all because of all the non-happening that you mentioned. It's one I might try again, but I'd rather delve into other offerings of hers. :) Andihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05220718933942181809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-21438663715000104182012-12-23T23:24:54.985-06:002012-12-23T23:24:54.985-06:00I am planning to read Once Upon a Time Machine at ...I am planning to read Once Upon a Time Machine at some point.

I mean it did at first, but I sort of thing that was the point...something like that seems like it would feel bigger and larger than the actual mundane reality. Plus, I just loved all the stuff about music, etc. I still want to see Argo, tho!Amy @ My Friend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259743929910918779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-25170266035835809702012-12-23T10:22:13.420-06:002012-12-23T10:22:13.420-06:00My sister really likes Patchett, so I thought I...My sister really likes Patchett, so I thought I'd enjoy it.
