Does anyone here read Austen? Has anyone?

I recommend it.
In love with this book.

I've wanted to read this since I was a kid. Finally got around to it and it really delivered. Great book!

Holy ****, I had no idea Chris Buckley wrote TYFS. Its easily one of the funniest films I've seen but I didn't know it was him.

Let me know how the book turns out.

Darkness, Take My Hand by Dennis LeHane

Follwing up on this series, book 2. Pretty engaging so far, as much as I loved the first, I can't see anything bad coming of this.

I couldn't get into the last book (for no good reason other than time/circumstance/mood) so I am reading this, I quite like it so far.

^ I still don't understand why they had to change the title of the book for American audiences.

Anyway I just read this...



I thought it was going to be some pissy chick lit but it was actually really, really good. It's up there with some of my favourite books of all time, and it will take a lot to knock it off. It really affected me in a kinda profound way for some reason.

The movie was terrible, though.
