Lily, I will! It is so hard to decide what book to read next with my long list. I don't have very much free time, I love the bus to read on. So we'll see when I get around to it, I really should have...
How do you like this book? I've only ever read the Ender and Bean seriers (my favortie books ever, next to DT)...I've not read any of his other stuff though.
I am currently on my way to finishing...
I'm reading Black House now. I'm only 3 chapters in and I actually really like how it is written. It is so creepy. Yuck. The descriptions are like a movie.
You did better than me. I read one page of that novel, then returned it to the library.
David Sedaris's essays are hilarious though. My favorite ones in that collection are the title essay, and...
I totally gave up on Infinite Jest like 2 weeks in...and am reading Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris. It is really cute and funny.
Before that I started reading Heart Shaped Box, which I...
It seems pretty crazy, I'm really interested. I've only gotten through a few pages (15) because I was on the bus but it is exciting. Oh and I like tennis.

Finally starting to read Infinite Jest. (though I know a lot of you may not have liked it)

Ah you're reading it! If I ever make it through IT, I plan on reading that one.
That's great! I actually have never heard about it, until Colin Meloy (of The Decemberists) tweeted about it. Yes, I've got a twitter lol.
Has anyone read Infinite Jest?

Have you ever watched the movie "Helvetica?" It's a great documentary about design-and that font specifically. Someone rolled his eyes at the concept when I mentioned it at a dinner-gathering a few...

Also still working on IT, only 200 deep but I just went on break so I think I'll finish it up now!
Definitely It. You won't regret it.[/QUOTE]
Well, that's the one I went with! it looks like it's pretty long...but I went to the store because I was excited to get it...so I obviously had IT in...
I just bought IT and a handful of others at Halfprice books (the best bookstore!)...I'm torn over what to start now that I have it. I have wanted to read Needful Things.
I liked Duma Key a lot. I...
finished Duma...now I don't know what to do next, I don't have either any of the books on my list yet for the next round of reading (It, The Stand). The only book I have is Needful Things that I...
yeah...oh well I thought it was going to be from a movie or something. I don't listen to either band. Funny though because I am reading Duma Key, and the part I just read, King just mentioned...
yeah! I've found a lot of what I think look like good books through the forums here from you guys.
