Love All the People - a collection of Bill Hicks' routines, letters, and interviews. I love the man. Such an angry bastard.

I just finished Into The Wild. It's an incredible book, inspirational.
I want to start reading the discworld series now.

My Sister's Keeper for school purposes, seems alright so far.

A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving. Read it before, a couple of years ago. Love it. It's a big'un, so I'll be chipping away at it for a month or two I'd say.

Started reading that, got bored after a few chapters. I didn't make much of an effort with it though...

Just finished The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks-really original book, very good read, a kind of modern gothic horror with sci-fi sensibilities

a bit graphic though in terms of violence, and distinctly creepy. Excellent story though, and some of the prose is amazing (I was underlining like a mad thing, arts degrees will turn you a bit weird). Still haven't made my mind up about the ending yet, but I hightly reccommend it. Last non-college related bit of fiction I'll be reading for a while, nice to end on a high note! Best present ever

"The Second Chronicles of Thomas Covenant". Brilliant series.

Yep. Read those series years ago and thought they were excellent. A kind of adult LOTR.

"It" by Stephen King, for the halloween spirit.

I took out two books from the library at college this week for some light reading:
One is called Gray's Anatomy for Students.
The other is called Spacetime Physics, and is about special relativity.

I just picked up "Let The Right One In". I enjoyed the film so when I saw the book decided to buy it. Should be interesting

I'll be interested to see how the book is actually, the film was amazing.
Apparently it came out roughly around the same time as those twilight books..hmmm...
