I need to get this book, I'm not much of a sci-fi fan, but Hater grabbed me pretty quick. Can only imagine what people will think when I'm holding up the book with Dog's Blood on the cover!
Currently reading the second book of Daniel Woodrell's Bayou Trilogy "Muscle For The Wing". The first book took a little to get into, but the second is a lot easier since most of the characters are set.
Btw - Did you read Moody's Autumn series? Not sure about that one.If there were no Angels would there be no sin?0 -

I haven't read anything in awhile (I go on spurts with reading). Was however thinking of starting The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo series and or The Hunger Games series as well. I enjoyed both movies and heard the books are decent.8/28/98- Camden, NJ

Game of Thrones books, technically A Song of Ice and Fire books but anyway, I'm onto A Dance With Dragons.
Also reading The Picture of Dorian Grey.
A Dance WIth Dragons is to huge to be able to read comfortably and the underground, so I read Dorian Grey on the way to and from work and ADWD in the evenings. There are worse ways to spend ones time.Dublin, Ireland, The Point, Jun 01, 2000

Not reading these now, but today, my favorite English professor from school said he was downsizing his book collection at home and gave me these three Jack Kerouac books:
Tristessa
Doctor Sax
The Subterraneans
He knows I have a huge interest in Kerouac. I can't wait for the semester to be over and dig into these books. I also have a couple of his poetry books that I'm also looking forward to reading.Shows: 6.27.08 Hartford, CT/5.15.10 Hartford, CT/6.18.2011 Hartford, CT (EV Solo)/10.19.13 Brooklyn/10.25.13 Hartford

Very different reads.
I enjoyed both but one is light and quick (Hunger Games) and the other is serious and while page turning, will take a bit more time to get through. (Dragon)
If I could only have read one of those series it would have to be Dragon. At times mysterious, pulse pounding, disgusting and rewarding - most things you could ask for in a read.
Enjoy them both!The love he receives is the love that is saved0 -
