Batmanga-The Secret History of Batman In Japan

Going to finish Hellboy vol. 10 and then MAYBE start Under the Dome. It's a biiiig fucker.

Batmanga kinda sucked.:( Still worth reading for the novelty, though.

I'm eating fried rice off of a bus time-table with a steak knife.

Wrong thread

Treasure Island found a copy of it and Tom Sawyer in my parents basement, so i figured I would give them a read. I am enjoying Treasure Island it has obvious plot twists but an enjoyable read.

I'm reading "A Dirty Job" by Christopher Moore. It's a bit emotional but still some laughs to be found. Not one his best though.

Even after reading the last two pages, I still felt the need to get it wrong :(

I respect that.

Just finished reading "A Dark Sacrifice", a fantasy novel I picked out of the bargain bin at Borders.

It was a surprisingly interesting read, and it ended on a big cliffhanger. Unfortunately, when I say it "ended", I mean it really ended. It didn't sell well, so the author never wrote any more books in the series. So nothing was ever wrapped up.

How's that legal?

Just picked up The Kitchen Readings: Untold Stories of Hunter S Thompson

Reading "Chill Factor". A novel in the Deathlands series by James Axler. Not highbrow by any means, but entertaining. Also avoid the Deathlands movie. It's a Syfy original and therefore blows.

Finished Under the Dome a little over a week ago. It was pretty gosh-darned good!

That's good!

I'm reading Guantanamo, by David Hicks. He was an Australian wrongly detained in Guantanamo Bay for 6 years and tortured. It's pretty horrible the stuff they did to him, and I feel really ashamed that this kind of thing goes on.

Red Dwarf by Grant Naylor. Yes this novel inspired the series, and yes, there are differences. The novel has a considerably darker tone. I mean really, really much grimmer. The characters are identical in their portrayal however, so that was good to see. I hate it when characters get changed in the transition, but Naylor wrote the television script too, so we saw none of that. Much of the book is in the series, but it goes more into Lister's backstory and also there is quite a bit that didn't make it into the series, such as the evolution of the cats and what their holy war was about (not the color of the hats at the hotdog stand, but rather the name of Holy Mother Frankenstein's protector and their savior. Cloister or Clister.) It was an entertaining read, but I was depressed at the end. It's very well written too. So I give it four out of five.

Found my copy of Love All The People. It's funny, reading stand-up bits.

I read through Deadeye Dick in one sitting this morning. IT IS NOT ABOUT DICKS. Recommended

derecommended

Pffft

Metro 2033. I heard it was 'alright' but not great, but the allure of a Russian author sucked me in. It's alright so far.

It has the usual Russian literary charm involving lots of exclamation marks and oft lost in translation descriptive writing, but there's a good portion of the book where the author must have gotten bored and just decided to skip ahead with the story and not bother writing about boring bits or things that must have been too difficult to explain, or that he couldn't figure out continuation for.

I'm Dreaming of a Black Christmas the newest book by Lewis Black

how's it compare to the game

Well I haven't played the game, but my brother has it and he's going to lend it to me or copy it or whatever.

It got better towards the end, then a bit stupid, then alright, then good, then it was over. The book, that is.

Just started reading Be Ready When the Sh*t Goes Down.

I never expected a book by two MMA fighters to be this funny. If fighting doesn't work out for Forrest Griffin, he could be the next Maddox.
