I've been an unregistered lurker for a year or so, and have been reading OSC since I was about 13 or so.ĭoomsday Book is one of my all time favorites! I will have to check out All Clear. What brings you to Hatrack? Have you been here for a while unregistered? Do we by chance already know you by another name? Books that make you feel like you're a slightly different person after you've finished than you were before you read the book, and you'll always see things just a little differently. So I guess I'm asking for books that you've read that are powerful enough to have left you feeling a little numb and sad that their over, but at the same time completely satisfied (even if the ending isn't necessarily happy). If I can find anyone who's read the book, it would be here, and If I can't, I would imagine that I might find recommendations for something that might help me shake this book's grip on me.

Part of me wants to talk about this book with someone, but nobody I know has read it yet (despite my recommendations, my friends seem to think that historical fiction is boring, although I'm not sure that's what you'd call these books.) I figured this was the right place to come. I finished the book late last night, and today I feel a little shaken and fidgety, like I need to pick up something that's going to be equally engaging and enthralling. It's been a couple of years since I've encountered a book that kept me so engaged the whole way through. This story was incredibly gripping for me. I just finished reading "All Clear," the second half of Connie Willis's novel (the first part of which is called "Blackout") about time-traveling historians and the London Blitz during WWII.
