It’s a short book.

    I also read this one in one day the first time I read it. If you enjoy Hemingway, I’d definitely recommend For Whom The Bell Tolls or The Sun Also Rises; but his short fiction is also some of best.

    If you don’t like Hemingway, I’d probably recommend other authors that aren’t him, some of whom I could name.

    Basically, reading is awesome.

      I have For Whom the Bell Tolls and tried reading it a while back but I could only get about halfway through before I stopped.

      At the time I wasn’t necessarily in a reading mood so I think it was more that than anything. I hear The Sun Also Rises is more popular so I might give that a try later in the year.

      I have East of Eden by Steinbeck on my shelf that I’ve been wanting to read. That’s probably the next fiction that I’ll read.

      Edit: I was thinking of A Farewell to Arms not The Sun Also Rises.
