What book are you reading?

[CraigBatty]

...aldous huxley's 'the doors of perception'

Very interesting book...
It's a shame that you felt let down by Bound For Glory. So far I've enjoyed every minute of it.
An insight into Woodys' mind via his life experiences? Pricless.
Lovecraft is an interesting read, sometimes his mythos is more interesting than his writing style. Are you reading his own works or the stuff that was finished by August Derleth?

the thing i didn't like abot BFG is how he mostly just talked about his childhood and having mock battles with the kids in the nieghborhood and all that crap. i hoped it would have more stories of his travels as a folksinger and on the picket line and shit.

i think i'm reading lovecraft's own stuff. his fantasy dream stories really pissed me off and i couldn't stand them. the short macabre ones i kind of dig, but when he uses more than 20 pages or so i can't take it.

Bernard W. Sheehan - Seeds of Extinction

[MissWalshy]

ha! I'm half way through the same book.

Oh my lord, I done the same thing. Well, I read half of it and found bits funny but I was seriously disappointed as I was told by many this would be my kind of book. It's exactly half way through I'm thinking its a itch and I might go back to reading it, and I might not.

Let me know if you get to 3/4s through and I might give it another go.

Cheers Georgey!
