Looooved The Secret History. Very cool story. EH, I'd love to hear which parts creeped you out since you went to "Hampden." Thanks!

I'm reading To Hell and Back, re-reading HP & the Order of the Phoenix (getting in the moooood for the next book), and have been reading Main Street before bed each night. Kind of an odd assortment......I read another book last week, but I guess because I can't remember, it wasn't that great.

Thanks, Heather....Marian Keyes. I always like her books.

I'm reading Ballad of the Whiskey Robber.

Amazing, so far. Just love his style of writing true crime/history. Plus, who doesn't love a real folk hero?! The Robin Hood of Hungary! It's awesome.

Just finished The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Mostly Harmless). Man, the end really, really depressed me a lot more than I was expecting to be depressed. Though the end of So, Long and Thanks for All the Fish actually made me cry. Douglas Adams, you da' (late) man!

A friend gave me "He's Just Not That Into You". I think she's trying to tell me something.

It was a fun little read.

Every few years or so my obsession with Chaplin re-emerges and I re-read and re-watch every CC book and dvd I own. That said, I am currently deep into, Tramp by Joyce Milton. Its a bit trashy, but its a lot of fun, too.

You must all remember, as it is sometimes easy to forget, Giants once walked on earth! Viva Charlie!

I just got the copy of Something Rotten by Jasper Fforde that I ordered. More Tuesday Next! Unfortunately it will go in the pile with everything else I don't have time to read.

I don't have time to post either.

I'm reading a sales catalog from Kuka - the crazy cats who make the Robocoaster ride system that some are claiming Disney is gonna use at DCA.

In the Presence of the Enemy by Elizabeth George. It's a mystery and so far is quite good.

Jack: Tastes pretty good to me.
