    Just started my Masters in English so I'll be going through novels at breakneck speed for the foreseeable future. First book of the term: Thomas Hardy's "Tess of the D'Urbervilles". A little too generic in plot for me, but beautifully written all the same.

    Great book. Palahniuk is such a fantastic writer.

    Right now I'm reading "Great Expectations" for one of my English Prerequisites.

    My favourite Dickens! Hope you enjoy it.

    Yes, he sure knows how to make readers squirm.

    If you haven't read it yet, I strongly recommend "Rant: The Oral History of Buster Casey."

    I've read those as well and The Killing Moon. He's getting better with each book for the most part.

    Just finished Orwell's "Time Machine". A bit silly in a 21st-Century context but still enjoyable and entertaining.

    Now onto "Waste Heritage", a little-known Canadian Depression-era novel about a workers' strike in Victoria, BC that fails miserably, followed by an organized trek to Vancouver that has no result, positive or negative. Yay.

    Just finished reading , Justin Cronin's - The Passage.

    Loved it. I'm not into any vampire-y type books/movies etc b ut this doesn't read like one.....I wouldn't have even brought it if it did.

    I'm almost done with a wonderful, wonderful book, I'm gonna be so sad when it's done. Matterhorn by Karl Marlantes, a novel about Vietnam. Sort of deceptively simple, clean prose. Lots of characters, the emotion sneaks up on you.

    After wanting to read it for over a year, I finally started "Water for Elephants" this week, so far, so good!
    Hearts and thoughts they fade....

    I am at peace with my lust.....for Eddie.
