At least you got them back... mine never make it back. _______________________________________________

Is this her new book? Is it part of the Vampire Chronicles? "...literal people are scary, man literal people scare me out there trying to rid the world of its poetry while getting it wrong fundamentally down at the church of "look, it says right here, see!" - ani difranco | |

I keep meaning to pick that one up. Me too. I've been meaning to start reading that one for ages now. It's been in my bookcase for about a year but I just haven't picked it up yet since there's about 50 unread ones in there. I just buy way too many books. It's sort of an obsession. Whenever I leave the house and go near a shopping centre I just can't leave without buying at least one book. It drives my friends mad. Heck, it even drives ME mad sometimes. This book is so amazing. I guess it would depend on your sense of humour but it's so dry and pedantic and sarcastic. | |

"Founding Brothers: The Revolutionary Generation" Joseph J. Ellis "[E]xplores how a group of greatly gifted but deeply flawed individuals... set the course for [the U.S.] Just finished: "Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace: How We Got To Be So Hated" Gore Vidal Excellent collection of essays in response to 9/11. On the horizon: "Dirty Havana Trilogy" Pedro Juan Gutierrez Wanting to re-read: "Slowness" Milan Kundera "A Prayer for Owen Meany" John Irving. Other long time favorites: "The Law of Love" Laura Esquivel "Like People in History" Felice Picano "Becoming a Man: Half a Life Story" Paul Monette "The World According to Garp" John Irving "The Four Agreements" Don Miguel Ruiz "The Age of Innocence" Edith Wharton "The Mysteries of Pittsburgh" Michael Chabon http://elmadartista.tumblr.com/ http://twitter.com/madartista | |

The Hamlet by William Faulkner Jesus' Son by Denis Johnson A Good Man Is Hard To Find by Flannery O'Connor Libra by Don DeLillo A Death in the Family by James Agee The Warrior Woman: Memoirs of a Girlhood Among Ghost by Maxine Hong Kingston I really want to read Ernest J. Gaines' entire canon, but I don't have the time. And lots of student papers. (These should be avoided at all costs!) ___________________________________________
