well, the book suggests these things by way of storyline, but it's a pretty gruesome tale. i had no idea what it was about until i opened it up and read it. i'm not upset i read it, but i'm not sure i'd recommend it necessarily, either.

as for spending an entire day reading, i HIGHLY recommend that =) just DO it!

the book is about 180 pages…i'm not a fast reader, per se, i just read for most of the day…a good 7 or 8 hours, i think.

i find myself slipping into the clockwork at times, myself. i'm much more aware of it in the past year or so though. i wonder if we ever completely stay the orange…

never read the book, never saw the movie. and, ha, now i don't have to. love the idea of spending an entire day reading a book – sounds like heaven to me.

Ya know, most of the time, now, I'm just a juicy orange, but sometimes I still find myself sliding into that clockwork place. I really like the metaphor. I never knew what a clockwork orange was, either…until now. Love this post. As an aside, I can't believe you read an entire book, cover to cover, in one day. I am the slowest reader there ever was.

I'm definitely an orange, juicy and likely to make a mess.
