So, I took a break from Neuromancer to read more crazy science-fiction. "A Boy and His Dog": Fucking shit, Harlan Ellison. I loved it.

Doesn't count as reading i guess, but just listened to the confederacy of dunces as an audio book. Super good book, and with all the regional dialects it was really enhanced by the format.

Almost done with Plainclothes Naked right now by Jerry Stahl. I've never read Permanent Midnight but it's high on my list now cause I fucking love this book. It reminds me of two of my favorite books Confederacy of Dunces and Youth In Revolt with the whole "colorful cast of characters; hijinks ensue" thing.

I got this book at Comic-Con for free....well it cost a lot because i was in line next to this guy who was telling me all about his fav manga Death Panda (it is by far the most horrid shit u have ever read google it) It was a quick read and kinda left u feeling like they had a whole novel and cut it in half. I say pass or pick it up at the library for free.

I'm having to read Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies for my World History class.
It's more informative than entertaining, but good all-in-all.

Just got done with the moneychangers. I love Arthur Hailey, Hotel is probably my favorite of all his books, the only one of his books I have left to read is Detective (which I started yesterday).

I bought a second copy of /Collected-Stories-Amy-Hempeland read it from cover to cover for about the 150th time.

She is INCREDIBLE!!!

Just buy this book, and you will have every story she has published to date.



Here is a free story to read, and an awesome one at that.
