    I loved it! There was never once through the 850 pages where I lost interest...I've already convinced a few other people to read it and they agree that it's great :D

    Annie, you have just convinced me 11/22/63 is next, :D

    I LOVE that series. I was in New Orleans a few weeks ago and we got to see the house Anne Rice lived in when she wrote the books - totally made me feel like I was walking around in one of the novels...so cool!

    I'm working through Cormac McCarthy's Border Trilogy ("All The Pretty Horses," "The Crossing" and "Cities Of The Plain"). Reading "Cities of the Plain" right now...the review quotes on each book are dead. Cormac McCarthy will some day have his place in the pantheon of great American writers. Fantastic series...highly recommended.

    I recently bought this trilogy, together with McCarthy's Suttree. I am looking forward to reading these soon. ..

    Shadow Man by Cody McFadyen... I hope the story is as good as all the hype on the cover portrays it as!

    Re-reading a book I read many, many years ago but always stayed with me: Ana Non by Gomez-Arcos. Sad. poetic, strong and inspiring at the same time.

    Think I might follow this one by re-reading another one of his books: L'agneau carnivore (The Carnivorous Lamb). **goes to dust off books on shelf**

    That guy is the biggest d-bag. By the time I got to the end of 'I hope they serve beer in hell', I couldn't fucking stand him. Some of this stories aren't even true...

    I just finished the series in about a week. Amazing series that I just couldn't put down. Now I'm finally reading the final book in the "Millennium Series" (Girl With Kicked The Hornets Nest). First two books were very good as well and I hope this one is as well.

    After I read finish this one I am going to move onto the Game of Thrones series.

    Makes me laugh and a whole book of the ridiculous stories can be a bit much, that is why they were more fun originally when they came out 1 at a time. 'Sushi Pants' is still one of the funniest things I have ever read.
    Is he a d-bag? Oh yeah, big time. Are his stories true? Who knows, but as a great man once said 'Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand.' The d-bag makes me laugh.
