    I just read Heave is for Real. I'd love to discuss it with someone else who has.

    And if anyone wants to read it, I'll gladly take my copy out of the trash for you.

    Just finished up this

    Great read...more detail than the movie (that I watched when it first came out) especially about his multiple appeals and more in depth about the Canadian commune that helped him.

    Now indulging my geeky side with this:

    Finally read "Red Dragon" Now I've got to finish Silence, and Hannibal. I've also got a bunch of others lined up, but haven't had as much time as I would like as of late.

    Just finished: Worst.Person.Ever., by Douglas Coupland. Worst.Book.Ever. The critics were not wrong about this one.

    Currently reading: This Is the Story of A Happy Marriage, by Ann Patchett.

    Let me elaborate. This FREE downloadable file contains samplers of all 11 (!) titles published by a new and upcoming publishing house called Broken River Books, run by young entrepreneur (and gifted writer) J David Osborne. If hard-hitting, gut-wrenching yet fresh and challenging Crime Fiction / Noir is your thing, or if you are simply looking for something that packs a punch, then please do check out these releases. They can be ordered through Amazon and are print-on-demand, which basically means these are NEVER out-of-print (even if stated otherwise). Trust me, do yourself a favor, and check this!

    Nothing says Happy Mother's Day like reading about teenage Juliet Hume and Pauline Parker killing Pauline Parker's mother (the movie Heavenly Creatures was based on the case). The book is very good though.

    Agree! Worlds better than Gerald's Game imo.

    Thanks for the recommendation, will definitely pick that one up! Read Misery years ago, but just recently started my binge - so far read Cujo, and Rage from the Bachmann Books.

    I couldn't figure out what book to read to begin my summer, so I had a little poll on Facebook to see what book I should read first (which afroannie was part of). My choices were One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, The Sun Also Rises, and Ham on Rye. This was the one had the most replies:

    Good book. If you like it I would recommend checking out The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe. It is about Ken Kesey and his band of Merry Pranksters acting like wackos in the 60s. Highly entertaining read and might make a good follow up on reading Kesey's most famous book.

    I read that the summer after my freshman year of college. Wacky is the word to describe it. Loved it.
