Start Reading - Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll

Feb 012011

This entry is part 1 of 2 in the series Through the Looking Glass

Happy February! The month of looooooove is upon us! There isn’t much more that I love than Lost! And one of the first great discoveries was the discovery of the Looking Glass Station.

So back down the rabbit hole we go, but this time we’ll go through a mirror (?) and back into Alice’s world. In case you missed it we covered Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland in November. Now we’re completing the journey with Through the Looking Glass. This month our leader is @MaskedDevera, but I remember hearing whispers that @erinava and @lostiegirl78 wanted to join in as well. You are all welcome! Just tweet to @LOST_Bookclub (or comment below) and I’ll make sure you’re in on the podcast scheduling decisions! In the mean time, go grab a copy of Through the Looking Glass (follow for Amazon purchasing) or grab your FREE e-copy on the Apple App Book Store or Kindle.

This entry is part 2 of 2 in the series VALIS

I talked with @batchout aka David and @lawscribe aka Walter about the book VALIS by Philip K. Dick. I went into the podcast a little heavy hearted, because I didn’t really ‘get’ the book, but these two guys really helped me not only grasp the book itself better, but to see the influence it had on Lost.

Happy December! This month marks our 7th month reading LOST books and I really feel that each month gets better and better! This month we’re reading a short story.

WRLB - November - Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

This entry is part 1 of 5 in the series Alice In Wonderland

Well, like I said in the 3rd Policeman Podcast, if we went down the rabbit hole in this book we’re LITERALLY going down the rabbit hole in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland… or even more figuratively… ANYWAY, me, you, rabbit hole (and an over abundance of commas). The last book was tough, and this book is [...]

WRLB - The Third Policeman Podcast is Up!

This entry is part 5 of 5 in the series The Third Policeman

Jon aka @LOST_Boss and I got into a pretty intense discussion about Flan O’Brien’s The Third Policeman and it’s relation to LOST. For me this was the toughest of our books so far, and yet I think we both agree that it was still entertaining. We give a REALLY detailed account of the plot so consider [...]

This entry is part 2 of 5 in the series The Third Policeman

Hopefully you saw the PSA, and you’ve started reading. Consider last month a slight cake walk, to this month’s chess game. I’ve finished it already and plan to reread. I’ve been well documented on the twitter citing this book’s confusing storyline. Maybe I’m over exaggerating, maybe I’m going easy on it. Your feedback is not [...]
