A great book imo! Lolita!!

Acid_Violet

Tis indeed, but it's getting just a bit too creepy now (I'm on the second part of the book now.)

I must have been one of the few who didn't really like it. Nothing to do with the subject matter just the writing. Maybe we should start a new thread/poll for it.

YogiBear

Chicken Soup for the Soul - Jack Canfield & Mark Victor Hansen.

Also reading bits here and there of

The Ancestor's Tale - Richard Dawkins.

Jello

No Country For Old Men - Cormac McCarthy

Northern Lights - Philip Pullman. I've read on some other board that "Golden Compass" is one of the worst adaptations ever, so out of curiosity I decided to check it out.

it wasn't bad but still far from good.

This week I are moving into main stream: "The Lost Honour of Katharina Blum" by Heinrich Boll.

AJG

'Stories of Five Decades' - Hermann Hesse.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

tad williams - shadowplay

i remember loving the first one, but there are a few things that are annoying me about this offering.. maybe it's just that I remember so little of the story.

JackieChan

Just read The Road (Cormac McCarthy). Quick read(300 pages in large font).
I like these post-apocalyptic novels and I'll enjoy reading it again. Reminded me a bit of Falling from Cars

Now on to No country for old men.

Karlusss

Ernest Hemingway - Fiesta

Not what you would call "major Hemingway" but entertaining enough all the same.

Edit: Wikipedia tells me that "most critics" think it's his best novel - there's me stung then.

greatscott

I really liked Fiesta too.

Just finished "Engleby" by Sebastian Faulks.. loved it, thought it was more enjoyable than Birdsong, though very different.

ZorbaTehZ

Same, brilliant book to be honest, one of my favourites.

David Lynch The Air is on Fire

A collection of his art with commentaries and interviews. Pretty cool.

Just finished 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' by Ken Kesey.

Starting 'Shakespeare Never Did This' by Charles Bukowski.

Filth- Irvine Walsh

I enjoyed this - I really like Welsh's style. I think I also read Porno straight afterwards, which is an interesting read for fans of Trainspotting.
