Saint Patrick's Battalion by Thom:

"In June of 1845, a group of immigrant Americans—called the San Patricio's, or St. Patrick's, Battalion—deserted Gen. Zachary Taylor's army and fought on the opposite side in the Mexican-American war, under the leadership of the elusive, charismatic James Riley."

I read American Psycho a while back, and certain scenes are... unforgettable, let's say.

The movie is a very good adaptation, btw. And Christian Bale totally nailed the part

Now I am reading something far more sedate... Mapp and Lucia by E.M. Benson, a novel set in Edwardian England.

Next, a bio of Madame Pompadour, mistress of the King of France.

I just finished Less than Zero by Bret Easton Ellis & I absolutely hated it.

Now I'm reading Under the Banner of Heaven by Jon Krakauer.

I never read books, im not a book person,
but I can't put away Scar Tissue.
Its been an interesting read so far, and very easy to read,
esp if English isn't your first language...

And I will never look Anthony and the Peppers and their music the same way as before I read this book. Wow!

Just finished reading "The Navigator" By Clive Cussler, it was ok. Now I started "Madame Tussault: A life in wax". It's pretty dull thus far but I think it will get better.
