My Thoughtsįollowing my September Man Booker Prize Month, I have decided to close out my 2018 Top 20 Reading List in October by taking on the last three books on the list – Isabel Allende’s The House of the Spirits, David Foster Wallace’s Infinite Jest, and Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace. Against a backdrop of revolution and counter-revolution, Allende depicts a family whose private bonds of love and hatred are more complex and enduring than the political allegiances that set them at odds. The Trueba family’s passions, struggles and secrets span three generations and a century of violent social change, culminating in a crisis that brings the proud and tyrannical patriarch and his beloved granddaughter to opposite sides of the barricades. In the triumph of magic realism, Allende constructs a spirit-ridden world and fills it with colourful and all-too-human inhabitants. Genre: Family Saga, Magical Realism, South American Fiction Synopsis The truth is Reed has something I desperately want. Not until I’ve figured out my best strategy with him. Unfortunately, though, I can’t give into my powerful craving to jump Reed’s cocky bones.

But that doesn’t mean I don’t want him to succeed. The Man with the Midas Touch would say anything to get me into his bed, and I know it.
