Books N shit

I just finished reading the Rum Diary last week.
Onto Chuck Palaniuk's Lullaby now. Shit just got awesome on page 52 on the train this morning.

Palahniuk.
Fuck.

Just finished reading 'and the Ass saw the Angel'
It was Nick Caves first novel.
Good shit.

nearly finished reading the book called 'i, mick gatto'.
its so good

Half way through Misery at the moment. Its alright, I dunno i just cant seem to get into kings stuff.

Also just finished Daughter of the empire by Fiest.

the wu-tang manual, is that serious, is it actually a good book?

Just finished A Suitable Boy that I mentioned a few pages back. 2 months of hacking away at a book but I was determined to finish it. I'm ready for violence and sex in large doses to wash away the foul stench of niceties.

Fortunately I have Tattoo by Earl Thompson at hand, which apparently delivers both in spades...

Anyone read atrocity exhibition by JG Ballard? Thoughts?

been looking for wu manual for ages...anyone know if theres anywhere to buy it on the internet?...cant be bothered reading the whole thread so im not sure if someones said these but...all james freys books, war and peace and a fortunate life would be my faves

the new avengers are aight

J.D Salinger died last week!

Reading "Hells Angels" bby HUnter S. Thompson at the moment

also his autobiography "Kingdom of Fear" was a great read

The Road by Cormac McCarthy is pretty good, i'm reading it now, it's being turned into a movie soon.

Vonnegut, Armageddon in Retrospect.

Actually, pretty much anything by Vonnegut.
But he's my favourite author so I'd say that.

Any Cormac novel is good.

Anyone read Life of Pi?
Currently reading Frankenstein.

Already has man. Released in the USA last year. I'll be downloading it this weekend. Apparently the movie is horrifically good. Bleak...but good.

aything by wilbur smith, his books are on a whole other level of epic in terms of storytelling, often really fucked up and depressing but at the same time really puts forward the idea of perseverance

when the lion feeds is my favorite and i strongly recommend it to anyone




Agreed! I finished River God a short time ago due to suggestion from these forums, one of the top 5 books i have ever read.

read the whole egyptian series, they get a little fanciful in the end, but still amazing,

power of the sword has got to be one of the greatest books of all time, i have 22 of his books and loved them all

Wilburs descriptions of sexual encounters is hilarious.

'the girl with the dragon tattoo'.... read it in 2 days... couldn't put it down.
