It's my favorite novel of his - I don't remember why exactly, but I remember loving it more than all the others.

Just finished reading all of the "Fables" graphic novels. They were pretty good. Fun concept for the whole series.

Dirty , talked this up so much I had to get it.

I'm also still reading the blind assassin.

Slow and steady like the great and wise tortoise.

Read Black swan green by David Mitchell. Twas merely ok, but rather underwhelming when you look at his other work. Twas to be expected I guess, considering it's told in the first person from the viewpoint of a 13 year old. Kids just aren't that interesting. The best bits are when adults get involved, especially that bit about the nutcase Belgian granny, closest it got to being profound. Still, an easy enough read and not exactly boring, but not really worth your time either.

Now onto Fevre dream by G.R.R. Martin. Pretty good for a vampire novel. Great atmosphere. Ain't no better setting for vampires than the swampy, sticky American south. Reeks of the devil....(:
