i find all haikus boring. just can't get into them. I prefer Kerouac's novels.

maybe I should read some of those, this is the first I've ever read of his.

really? I just bought that version yesterday at Borders, I do hope it will not be a total waste of money.

So did I :/. You have to take in account that last time I saw Interview with a Vampire was about 5 or 6 years ago, when I was going through my vampires are awesome stage of life (Srsly, I was in love with the show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I think I saw every episode at least like 6 times if not more, especially season 2, I know sad). I'll watch it again and see if I still enjoy it as much as I did back then, i'll have to find and hook up the laser disc player though.

it's worth the money just to read what he wrote originally but I have read the normal version so many times that that version is the one i'm used to.

ok, i've read the normal one quite a few times as well, i'll just have to see which one I prefer.

Steven Colbert's new book. I am America.

I suggest it to anyone who wants a good laugh.

i saw him introduce that on the Colbert Report.

i have it but i haven't gotten to reading it.

You definitely should. That and John Stewarts boo, both are good. Stewarts is prob the better one.

ill look into getting Stewarts as well.

of course after i read Colbert's.
which i may start today if im lucky.

The man who mistook his wife for a hat.

'tis excellent.

^ By Oliver Sacks.

Funnily enough, I posted in a recent thread about that exact book.

I'm only three or four cases so far but I'm enjoying it. Not so enjoyable when it invades your dreams though. Believing you cannot distinguish objects or faces is not good.

The Boy with the Thorn in his Side by Keith Fleming. That dude led a crazy rock and roll filled life. I always thought Memoirs were dull and boring.

god is not Great; How religion poisons everything by Christopher Hitchens. After he did the 24 hour news circuit I couldn't not buy the damn thing.

Dante's Inferno (again)

Angles and Demons, for the 3rd time.

how did you like The Wind-Up Bird?

really? that book isn't that great. Or at least I found it to be a beach book.

The Scarlet letter - Nathaniel Hawthorne

My Father's Scar, for the like 8th time.

Beauty's Punishment, again.

Sybil.

I Hate Myself And Want To Die [A Descriptive Book Of The Most Depressing Songs Of All Time.]

The Fog.

And, something I can't remember the name of right now.

And, Moshpit.

JG Ballard's Crash
Thomas Disch's 334
Azerrad's Our Band Could be Your Life <--- fans of any sst bands would probably enjoy this

Brilliant book.

I recommend anything by Primo Levi...I reckon you'll like his work. If your not already aware of him.

Sex, Drugs and Cocoa puffs by Chuck Klosterman




I am in love with him ...Killing yourself to live by him is also really good

Book
 

I am currently reading

Nora Roberts: Dance of the Gods

I haven't begun reading it yet, unfortunately.


It's just something to dull my brain before I start my holiday reading. I don't really like Brown's books that much, to be honest.

Yeah...I don't know about you guys but I love reading books I don't like three times.

Haha.
Of course, I do.
Why wouldn't I?
I mean it is to dull my brain, not make me mad.

I've read Killing yourself to live before, it was sent to me by a pen pal and I loved it. It was the first thing like that I had read before.

The Stranger by Albert Camus is the best book I've ever read.

it was my favorite until i read dhalgren. but i'm a sucker for sci-fi.

I just finished The Great Gatsby last night. Why do good books always have to have such depressing endings?

Now I'm starting Stephen Colbert's book, which my sister got me for Christmas.

osht wrong thread.. um I just finished The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield. :)

my reading list is building up! I cant find fargo rock city anywhere :(.
I am currently reading The Art of Pilgrimage

Bless Me, Ultima is what I'm reading now.

i believe its called "everythings eventual" by stephen king
it says "1408" on it so at first i thought thats what it was
turns out its just a book of a bunch of short stories that include "1408"
