I miss that show... If the book is anything like the show, I'm down to read it. I couldn’t help but think about Wishbone, the show about the Jack Russel Terrier detective dog. I miss that show…

I've never read a Tom Perrotta book. The only book by Nick Hornby that I've ever read (...gotten past the first ten pages...) is <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1932416242?ie=UTF8&tag=nonpretentiou-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=1932416242" rel="nofollow">The Pollysyllabic Spree</a>. Mostly, I was inspired by how many books Hornby started to read and never finished. (Just like me!) Since I can't really judge by writing talents, I'll judge by movie adaptations and still say Perrotta surpasses Hornby. <a href="<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00001MXXJ?ie=UTF8&tag=nonpretentiou-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00001MXXJ" rel="nofollow">" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img class="size-full wp-image-4465 alignleft" style="border: 10px solid white;" title="post1" src="http://nonpretentious.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/post1.png" alt="post1" width="90" height="128" /></a><a href="<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00003CXGA?ie=UTF8&tag=nonpretentiou-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00003CXGA" rel="nofollow">" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img class="size-full wp-image-4467 alignright" style="border: 10px solid white;" title="post2" src="http://nonpretentious.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/post2.png" alt="post2" width="90" height="128" /></a> <strong>is > greater > than</strong> (Sorry Jack Black!) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> [While I've never read "Little Children" or see the whole movie, I did see a hot sex scene with Kate Winslett in a laundry room.] Anyway, point is, The Wishbones is on my queue!
