I'm finally reading Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, or whatever it's called. I'm about halfway through at this point. Also halfway through Eats, Shoots, and Leaves and Talk to the Hand. Maybe I should actually finish something...

I just recieved "The Complete Letters of Vincent Van Gogh". Its been absolutely amazing so far.

Okay, that's cool, OP. :snap:
I don't know why, but I get off on reading stuff like that, particularily when it's from an artist or author whose work I like. I love the commentaries they give on comtemporary culture and politics, and the reading about how they agonised for weeks over a single line of prose or got beat up by their jealous spouses when busted for infidelities. Am re-reading 'The Hot Zone'. Just getting ready for when the avian flu hits. |
I just finished yet another Murakami novel called Norwegian Wood. It was his first really big "hit" in Japan. It was quite good and a bit different from the others I have read, although it is interesting to see some of the same icons, themes and accidental characters appear throughout his novels.
Man is he a great writer. I have no idea what I'm going to read next, but I'm out of the house with my Dalmatian for the next week, so I'd better find something quick. |
101 Dalmations?
Sorry- it's been a long day.:D |
LOL. No, one is enough.

My Grandma just bought me Marley & Me by John Grogan. :)
I've been so excited to read this book! I've heard so many glowing & positive reviews, and it's now #1 on the New York Times Best Seller list. Even Howard Stern has been giving this book lots of attention on his morning show. I think it's going to remind me very much of my little snowpea that recently passed away. In fact, I think this would be a wonderful read for anybody that has a beloved dog, cat, or pet of any kind! :) Here is a link! http://www.marleyandme.com |
I've begun Palm Sunday: An Autobiographical Collage by Kurt Vonnegut. It's a collection of writings, transcribed speeches, personal letters, etc. by Vonnegut (and some by people close to him) that he complied and added commentary to. I'm only through a chapter and a half and I LOVE it. He's such a prick sometimes, but a damned amusing one.

While not quite as cerebral as some of the other offerings posted here, I'm reading "Angels and Demons" right now. So far, it's been an enjoyable little romp around the Vatican. I'm liking it quite a bit better than The DaVinci Code.
