Don't talk to me about reading. I have to read Lord of the Flies for school. Eh.

Darkness thrives in the void,
but always yields to purifying light.

^God, I hated that book. I have great reverence for the classics and enjoy many that others do not, but other than its use of allegory (and even that was rather heavy-handed and simplistic), Lord of the Flies was utterly unredeemable, for me.

I'm reading Bright Lights, Big City, by Jay McInerney, and The Ground Beneath Her Feet, by Salman Rushdie.

Alex & Me by Irene Pepperidge. Really fascinating. I of course knew of Alex, but I certainly didn't know the extent of his abilities. The fact that he clearly understood the concept and function of the word "no" is quite amazing.

The meadows are in bloom:
who has ever seen such insolence?

I found a rather large collection of Julio Cortázar's short stories in the attic, so I'm reading those right now. The Pursuer left me speechless.

'What Happened To Lani Garver' by Carol Plum Ucci.

You know that place between sleep and awake? The place where you can still remember dreaming? That’s where I’ll always love you. That’s where I’ll be waiting.

1984, by George Orwell, and Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley, both for a school project. And How I Live Now, by Meg Rosoff, just for fun.

Velocity by Dean Koontz. And before that I read False Memory by Dean Koontz. I love the the man's books and I'm not afraid to admit it. His best one in Watchers though.

Halflife, by Meghan O'Rourke and rereading the exquisite Le Petit Prince, by Antoine de Saint-Exupery. I'm also itching to get my hands on Nicole Krauss' Great House and David Sedaris' Squirrel Seeking Chipmunk.

Why I love David Sedaris:
"He took a sip of my father's weak coffee and spit it back into the mug.
'This shit's like making love in a canoe,' he said.
'Excuse me?' my father said.
'It's fucking near water!'"

An American Childhood, by Annie Dillard and Great House, by Nicole Krauss. I never thought that Krauss would be able to top herself after The History of Love, but was I ever wrong. I hope that Great House wins the National Book Award for which it was nominated.

I'm going to agree with your opinion of the man!!!! I own every one of his books but he just can't crank them out fast enough for me I just re-read "Taken" & the 4 "Odd Thomas" books which are my favorites!

I just finished reading both, they are so trippy but with really abrupt endings in my opinion.

I'm re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-(exponent x 132901 here)-reading Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows. I'm on The Ghoul In Pajamas so far. For school I have to read - you guessed it - Deathly Hallows anyways because we're exploring good vs. evil, and my new class (I transferred cos my English teacher hates me and I wasn't passing because it was so loud in there) is full of Potterheads. Which I think is amazing. <3
