Yeah I'm enjoying the historical parts. Wish I knew more about Judaism and stuff... I feel it'd give me a bigger perspective or something. I dunno

The World Inside was a semi-random choice from the Silverberg books they had. I don't know anything about it but just picked it because I liked the cover. My version looks like this:
a great pick....please let me know what you think....in my opinion this book really rivals some of the greats in "psychedelic" sci-fi

It was cheap and I heard so many good things about it.

I actually bought it because John Irving, one of my favorite authors, did a pretty glowing review of it, so I'm definitely interested. It also deals with the AIDS crisis during the 1980's and one of my friends just told me he's HIV positive, so it's partly an homage to him as well, but yeah, I'm excited to read it.

I got burned by an Author on Author review one. Chuck Phalunk (whatever) gave Knockemstiff kind words and it was a ****storm.

As for AIDS, didn't want Angels in America, huh?

Well, I didn't think in terms of, "Hmm, what AIDS book am I gonna' get?", I was toolin' around Amazon and came across it and the fact that it dealt with that particular subject matter was just one of the selling points, I guess.

ROFL.

I'm honestly trying not to give myself away at work right now by laughing my ass off. I'm not picturing B&N having an AIDS section. Well I hope you'll post a review of some kind when you finish.
