Harry Potter and Leopard-Walk-Up-to-Dragon. Really.

In other words, the Hobbit with HP names. :|

The Once and Future King. Totally rad. Wish i read it sooner.

I finished Pratchett's "Making Money". I liked it. I'm always going to though so nothing new there.

I just ordered "Angels and Demons".

Motley Crue's The dirt. I don't really like their music nor do I think they have anything positive to say but it seems like it would be interesting at the least.

Tadao Apr 30th, 2009 02:22 PM

You've never met Vince Neil then.

10,000 Volt Ghost Apr 30th, 2009 04:08 PM

Not yet anyway. I think I meet him sometime in chapter 2.

Tadao Apr 30th, 2009 04:36 PM

He came to buy appliances at a Sears I was working at. He acted like he was at Sharper Image :lol

They did, specifically the most recent one. But they changed it due to studio meddling and test audiences not liking it. And this is why, in my opinion, studio executives need to learn to leave the creative people alone to do their own thing and they'll be successful.

Anyway, I just finished reading Abarat. First book I've ever read b yClive Barker, and I have to say that I like it, and will probably be getting more of his books in the future.

Tadao Jul 8th, 2009 05:16 PM

People said the same thing to me. I would be reading the old long classics for fun and they all hated it because they were forced to in school.

Mr T - The Man with the Gold, by Mr T

I have officially started Bonfire of the Vanities and Ulysses, and have my sights set on The Awakening and Other Stories by Kate Chopin next.

I'm surprised that I'm enjoying Ulysses more than Bonfire of the Vanities; the latter has all the ingredients I look for in a novel, but Tom Wolfe's style is starting to grate on me. Maybe the internet has ruined ellipses for me, but he uses them far too much. I feel like I'm reading some horrifying 13 year old's blog when I see sentences like "he turned the corner... there are a lot of black faces here he thinks... the Bronx sure is scary..."

IT IS A GRAMMATICAL NIGHTMARE.
