SKQ Reads: Fall
October 4, 2012
Friends,
It’s been a while! First off – all of this single release stuff has been so exciting and the shows are feeling terrific! Thanks to all of you who have been coming out to the shows and sending us such supportive comments online! We are absolutely thrilled about our new record and I seriously can’t wait until the whole thing is available for everyone to hear!
已经有很长一段时间没更新了!首先,所有的(single relaase stuff应该是指什么呢?)这些演出都好极了!谢谢你们一直来看我们的演出,还在网上给我们支持。我们为我们的新专辑感到兴奋不已,我迫不及待想要让所有人听到它们!
Now, I realize I’ve neglected those of you who enjoy hearing about what I’ve been reading for SO many months now! You may be asking yourself, SARA HOW ON EARTH DID YOU HAVE TIME TO READ WHEN YOU WERE IN REHEARSALS 8 HOURS A DAY FOR THE LAST MONTH!?
现在我开始意识到我忽略了那些喜欢听我说关于我这么多个月都在读什么。你们一定在猜测,SARA,你最近这个月每天排练8小时你怎么有时间阅读?
Well, I did! Let’s see- there was all that time on the bus to and from rehearsals. There was that one day off where I got to lay on my couch for an hour. There was that 13 minutes that I managed to keep my eyes focused for long enough to read a chapter (last night). Just, SO many wonderful, cherished times that I couldn’t have imagined filling with anything other than WORDS (read and not spoken aloud).
SO!
好吧,我确实有时间的!让我们看看,全是在巴士上时和排练时阅读。只有一天暂停了的是因为我在家里的沙发上躺了一小时。昨晚上有13分钟的时间我决定让我的眼睛聚焦足够长时间来阅读一章节。那是那么美妙的,让我珍爱的时光,我无法用其他语言来描述(阅读和不大声说话)所以!~
Here you go!
First off- GONE GIRL by Gillian Flynn. Read this over the summer and really enjoyed it. So addictive.
《消失的女孩》(Gillian Flynn)读了一夏天,很喜欢,让人上瘾。
Open City by Teju Cole and Stoner by John Williams were both books that took me a little while to dig through. Entirely different, but both beautifully written. Highly recommended.
完全不同的风格,但都写得很漂亮。强烈推荐。
Fear of Music by Jonathan Lethem, State of Wonder by Ann Patchett and This Is How You Lose Her by Junot Diaz. ALL amazing. Especially enjoyed the last one. Wow
最爱This Is How You Lose Her by Junot Diaz
On a sadder note, I was so terribly shocked by the loss of David Rakoff. He was one of my absolute favorite writers and I wanted to say again that ANY of his books are worth reading and also please watch this:
一则悲伤的记录,我是这么的为大卫·拉科夫的去世感到震惊。他是我绝对最喜欢的作家之一,我想再说一遍,他的每一本书都是值得一读的,还请大家看这个:
