713 pages in 4 days...wish me luck. You wont be seeing me around here much this weekend, thats for sure.
So Ive got through 229 pages so far...not bad. Like I said it's not really my style, but its well written. Supposedly it gets pretty distubing later on, not sure if Im looking forward to that or not...

i read the Slade series at home but at work i am reading "A Short History of Nearly Everything" by Bill Bryson. I found it on the ground and picked it up and decided to read it on my break. It's pretty fucking awesome.

I'm reading Stephen Kings CELL.
And Neil Gaimans 'Smoke and Mirrors'...again.
And Neils new short story collection 'Fragile Things'.

And Granma Joy's 'Hope for Hurting Women'...she is a local author and what a woman!
I went to one of her book signings and I really dig her whole schick,I think she's going to be BIG.
The very first page of her book just fucking floored me and inspired me and made me cry and about 20 other emotions.

And about 3 different magazines.

I think I have developed ADD.:D

finished Richard E Grants 'With Nails'

i cant recommend this book enough .. easily the best autobio/book about film i've ever read.

its written in diary form .. each chapter is a movie he worked on starting with Withnail and I.

no bullshit - no dirt - just an extremely entertaining and unintentionally informative take on his experiences in film.

Steven Erikson's Gardens of the Moon. Awesome book. I'm only about a hundred pages in, and it's already a contender for best fantasy I've read.
