How many of you refuse to loan your books out? I stopped doing that a long time ago, because if they got returned to me they would be dog-eared, scuffed, with the spine broken. That is a BIG pet peeve of mine...


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

Is this her new book? Is it part of the Vampire Chronicles?

"Catch 22" - Joseph Heller (very funny, still reading it)

I keep meaning to pick that one up. smile



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.

I like a little bit of everything, no one particular genre. I guess maybe biography. But I've been on a historical, news, and spiritual bent of late.

Current reads:

"The Direct Path: Creating a Personal Journey to the Divine Using the World's Spiritual Traditions" Andrew Harvey

About removing the dogma of religion for a direct relationship with God.

"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
let me come over it's a beautiful day to play with you in the dark

Straight Man by Richard Russo (Wet your pants funny)

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!)
