Wuthering Heights. Because I'm constantly shelving a copy of it in New Arrivals at the library and I finally realized, I should actually read this some time.

I honestly knew nothing of the story before starting it, so it caught me a little off-guard that it's written from a man's point of view.

Good read so far. They make some really good points in regards to prohibition.

I just started reading this one after I read American Psycho. I'm now going to read everything Ellis has ever written, the guys a genius. Less Than Zero is good so far, but I'll report back when I'm done.

I am obsessed with Bret Easton Ellis <3 Less than Zero is great. My favorite of his is Glamorama. You should read that next!!!

You know he is releasing the sequel to Less Than Zero in June right?

I just ordered a first edition hardcover of Glamorama. Should be here next week.

I'm still working on Stephen King's It, but decided to start reading this one too, since a few peeps have recommended it now.

Fantastic stuff, I've laughed out loud to a lot of the man's writings on this book.
Stories like "A Twenties Memory" are deliriously funny, a must for everyone with a sense of humour.
