Ignore the idiot behind the curtain

Sorry, I was being dumb in my last blog. I was going to take it down, but I figured for honesty's sake I'd keep it up; y'all should know that I can be especially not intelligent sometimes.

So, new topic, sprung from a question Olivia and I were pondering today: can you recommend a good book for me to take abroad? It should be long and relatively literary, to merit its being lugged about all over the world. A good example would be something like Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie. Ready? Break!
