I go to school with Dexter's cousin in real life.
The consensus seems to be the show is better than the book. I had a similar experience with Fight Club.

I bought Shell Silverstein's The Giving Tree and read it to my boy last night. One of my all time favorite books. Though he's only three months its never to early to read to them.

When two fit, it makes you think
I got the cute one, my woman
She says, "Lovin's all I bring"
And it's her loving that's a wonderful thing.
Lovin' yes we are, it's such a wonderful thing
When two fit it makes you think
See us both in the black
She lays on me so relaxed.

We started building a library for Ella as soon as my wife got pregnant and all the Silverstein went in it right away. And you're right, it's never too early to read to them. We've been reading to her since she was a few weeks old. It doesn't matter if they get it or not. Somewhere it's getting through to them subconsciously that books are important. The rest will come later.

Though he's only three months its never to early to read to them.I also added Shel Silverstein to Paris's collection when she was a baby. Now she reads me The Giving Tree and her favorite poems from Where the Sidewalk Ends, which I find one of the most rewarding things in my life.

A true firewasp ninja would never wear such a ridiculous sweater.
There's logic in nonsense.
Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.
Currently trying to read The Traveling Vampire Show by Richard Laymon. Anyone read this? It was recommend by a friend who said it had an It like feel to it, but so far I'm honestly not caring for it to much.
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
still reading Thus spoke Zarathustra
finished Black Boy for school (we only read part 1) and have started up on Cry The Beloved Country'
still reading Invisable Man for school, and, each time i think about that book, i think about that bit from The Body where the narrator (can't for the life of me remember his name. Gordy, mayhap?) mentions reading this book while looking for the wells, not the ellison one, and liking the ellison one a lot.
So it goes.

Currently reading Paul Theroux's new book: Ghost Train to the Eastern Star: On the Tracks of the Great Railway Bazaar, The Glass Bead Game by Herman Hesse, Stephen King's new short story collection, Earth: The Sequel by Frank Krupp and Veblen's Theory of the Leisure Class. Whew! I enjoy having many books going, kind of like changing channels on a tv, literarilly (Is that a word? If not, it is now)
i am currently reading Just After Sunset...i usually blow through alot of books in a year but for some reason i can't get to reading it...maybe after i finish Fallout 3 i will get back into reading....lol...i do read a little at work though...been kinda slow. anyone need a haircut....lol
Does whatever a spiderman does.
still in my reading slump. of course, that isn't stopping me from getting books to add to the pile of "to be read". i'm 1/4 of the way through "gingerbread girl" in just after sunset and can't seem to get any farther. my bookmark hasn't moved in the living dead in weeks. wastelands came today. maybe i'll have better luck with that.
I got Shadows of the Empire in the mail today!
SQUEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Currently, I'm not reading any book in particular because I've been so busy with college.
But the last book I read was Eric Clapton's Autobiography. I thought it was great, since I really like his music and it also sheds a lot of light on not only his life and what inspired him but on the lives of fellow musicians he befriended. It's a really good read if you're a fan of Clapton, and if you aren't then it's a great way to learn about him and his music and maybe then become a fan =D
I've read 2 Kurt Vonnegut books to date: Cat's Cradle and Slaughterhouse-Five.
I've become a fan of his but he has so many books to choose from, I'm having some trouble figuring out which one I should read next over holiday vacations.
Any suggestions? =)
Thanks, guys. Take care.
