I'm reading Dean Koontz's "Frankenstein" right now, a new twist on an old classic. It's actually really good so far.

I just finished reading Sarah by J.T. LeRoy.
I highly suggest it.

Now, I'm starting The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things also by J.T. LeRoy.

I used to do some work for a company with Fibre in their name - and they were talking pulp.

(Anyone who drove from Portland to Seattle on I-5 probaby 'appreciated' their 'aroma')

I'm just getting started on a Mary Jane Clark novel - "Dancing in the Dark" Not exactly swanky - but enjoyable brain candy (kind of like a decent chocolate, as opposed to a full on chick-lit/romance that's hard candy)

Everyone Into the Pool by Beth Lisick

Just finished Kelly Link's Stranger Things Happen.

I highly recommend them both.

I'm reading "The Beekeeper's Apprentice." I've read the other books in the series and I'm only just now getting around to the first one. It's of the Sherlock Holmes genre -- what if Holmes, in his later years, partnered with a young woman of similar skill that he eventually married? And it's much less lame than that description sounds. They're written from the perspective of the woman and they're really quite entertaining.

Just finished Freakonomics by Steven Levitt. Awesome, awesome book. Really opens your head up. Recommended for Liberals and Conservatives alike, because it's numbers, not politics.

I was talking with a friend about Vampires last night and I just got a hankering for some good blood sucking. I picked up a copy of The Historian. I've both read and heard good things, but I'm going in with my eyes wide open (and garlic around my neck - to attract the vampires, of course). We'll see.

Well, you say, fibre, I say fiber. So long as its good for your potty, then why quibble, right? The thing is folks, no matter what the spelling, we need plenty of it in our diets.

Myself, lately I have been reading a lot the stuff left on my windshield at night. It seems Lyndon LaRouche is running for president again and 24 Fitness is having a sale.
