what have you read recently?

[Del_Boy]

Just finished reading Frank Skinners autobiography, 'twas a really good laugh

[G0D]

Well lets see, I read the first post of this thread. But book wise The last book I read was 1984 By George Orwell. It is really good I recomend it to all you Paraniod androids out there.

i have yet to read that.... i heard from jimmy that it's really good but i'm still reading lotr...

[BurnoutEX2]

Yep, it's really twisted an paranoid. The CIA spooks probably got a LOT of ideas from reading 1984.

Good, now go read Catch-22, Animal Farm, Catcher In The Rye, and The Quiet American... If you live in the USA, your library will tell the FBI that you're a suspicious character .

I still need to see the movies based on all those works, I'm especially looking forward to watching the old movie based on The Quiet American that many critics, even in the mainstream, say could have been funded by the CIA to have all of its morals skewered by a large patriotic American penikle. Ooh, the cartoon of Animal Farm too...

[Draco2.0]

Umm..... queen of the damned, I Am Legend, and The Shinnig.

All very good if I do say so myself

Except maybe QOTD

I was reading The Two Towers again last night. Most boring of the three, but still very good. I just started last night, so I'm around page 150.

I'm semi-reading the new Harry Potter book... I've had it since the day after it was released, and I'm still on chapter 5... I haven't read it for a while though, I can't get very interested in it. Personally I don't find it as good as the previous books, but maybe that's due to the fact that we've all been waiting for 3 years for it to be released, and not a lot of things live up to that kind of hype.

Today, I bought 'Catcher In The Rye' and Michael Moore's 'Stupid White Men'. I haven't started reading them as of yet, perhaps I shall do so later tonight.
