The End of the Affair
I just finished reading The End of the Affair by Graham Greene and absolutely loved it. His characters are always so flawed, and yet so inviting. It’s interesting to me that many of his main characters are writers#–especially in light of his own exploits in hire of the British MI6. I wonder how much of his writing is based on his own experiences and how much is made up. If you haven’t read his books, pick one up. I recommend waiting on this one until you’re comfortable with his use of language#–he has an odd twist to his vernacular that takes some adjusting, and this book is just so good, I hate to see anyone squander even a moment rereading a passage for clarity.

I like reading books, though I haven’t read a good book in a while. Have any suggestions?

Probably too many! What was the last book you really liked? Then I can make a recommendation.
