*cough* I'm catching it too...

Ann beat me to it!

I heard the announcement of the Pulitzers yesterday and immediately went downstairs, found my copy of The Brief and Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao and put it on the top of my pile. It's something I've wanted to read for a long time, but the Pulitzer is just the kick in the pants I needed. I hope to start reading it tonight.

I too loved The Road and finally broke down and read that after it won the Pulitzer.

This brings up a question: Are you more likely to read a book if it wins a prize? My answer would be yes, if it was something I was hoping to get to anyway. Share your answers with us in the comments section please!

p.s. Ann, if you the eyeball on the cover of Infected is scary, you definitely should NOT check out the book's website. The eyeball moves!!
