POPSBooker Short List Announced Super excited about the new books from Byatt and Coetzee. Will read them even if they do not win. Will definitely read the winner. I'm still reading last year's winner - "Midnight's Children" by Rushdie. It is fantastic, but I hit a lull. Not enough time to read when you're having fun raising a toddler.

POPSGM & Delphi (from Willhelm) The shell game begins. Somebody is getting very rich off of this GM bailout - and I can promise you it isn't us - the taxpayers - even though we're the ones who bankrolled this disaster. The linkage of billions of bailout funds to any business based in Beverly Hills raises red flags for me.

POPSBest of 40 Years of the Booker Prize I just started reading this a couple of weeks ago. Accidentally dropped it in the ocean on vacation. Bought another copy and am reading it now. So far, I agree that it is a fabulous book. I highly recommend it.
