Are you using sales to judge artistic merit and critical reception? What is this in reference to?

Mary Shelly's Frankenstein. for like the 5th time now. its a classic. Dean Koontz Frankenstein wasent that bad. it was worth a read. i just dont want to read all the other ones hes going to come out with.

HA! that made me laugh. HA. there i did it again.
*cough*

It's no Regulators, but it's pretty good.

i do like king. but he just doesnt do it for me. its just not enough for me. and its to much little shit i dont care about. but i loved cell. cause of how it started right away. and pet semtary was awesome. i loved it. but once again a lot could have been cut out.
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy is one of my favorites ever.

The Uses of Haiti by Paul Farmer, 1994/2006. A sad little tale of how the the first black country in the western hemisphere was so used and abused by the powers that be. Ashe.

Somebody's researching for a script.

Into the Wild, by Jon Krakauer

FANTASTIC, lush, and colorful book... I need to pick that one up again (I was reading it for a while but put it down because I didn't put enough time into it to remember characters' names) - it's incredibly engaging and one of my boyfriend's favorites.

Ooooooooooo. Let me know how that is. I'm going through a bit of a vampire phase at the moment...

Just finished:

• You Suck: A Love Story by Christopher Moore - Cute and fun. The writing bothered me a bit toward the beginning, but by the end I was definitely enjoying it. What a fun light summer read. Would make a cool movie if done by the right person.
• Twilight by Stephanie Meyer - Nothing more than a seventeen romance story (it took them 300 pages to get to the first kiss and then the "villain" is introduced on page 400 and dealt with by page 460), but a guilty pleasure nonetheless. I'm actually excited to read the next one. :o

I tried reading the first Sookie Stackhouse novel, Dead Until Dark, by Charlene Harris, but I thought that the writing was so pedestrian that I had to put it down. Hate to say it, but I think that True Blood the series is better than the books.

At the beginning of the summer I read The Robber Bride, by Margaret Atwood, which was simply amazing. An incredible character piece surrounding three women and how they lives are impacted by another woman, Xenia. Beautifully written. I've already loaned/bought it for a few people I know.

...

And to continue with the vampire theme, I am reading Interview with the Vampire for the first time. Pretty psyched to get through this. Maybe I'll read Salem's Lot again - Definitely a good little vampire book.

Lined up I have Blood Sucking Fiends: A Love Story by Christopher Moore, which should be fun as well.

The Strain turned out to be a three star beach read kinda thing. I think Chuck Hogan holds del Toro back.
