I bought that book for my brother last year. I only did it for the free copy of Hell Island by Matt Reilly that came with it, though.

Catch-22 turned out to be the best book I ever read, so now I'm reading anything Joseph Heller wrote - right now it's Something Happened, and after this I'm gonna read Good as Gold. That and I'm trying to con everyone I know into reading Catch-22 so I have someone to talk to about it.

i just finished 'high fidelity' by nick hornby. it made me feel not so queer about my obsessions with music!

and i started 'the secret history' by donna tartt the other day. i must say, ms tartt's extreme wealth of knowledge for all things greek is positively formidable! still, she manages to make it all seem not out of place and anything but contrived, which is quite an achievement. it's a very engaging read thus far; the detail and imagery is outstanding! i can see why it's been heralded as a "modern classic".

It's an awesome book, I accidently walked out of my school library with it and i'm not returning it now.

Just ordered a copy of The Count Of Monte Cristo from my bookstore, I lost my copy of it,

It sucks when you lose a book I'm reading The Count of Monte Cristo at the moment.
And Dragon Wing, which is the first book in The Death Gate Cycle by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman.

I love the Death Gate Cycle. Have you read it before?

 

[Emma-Jayde]

Nope, this is the first time.
Been told by a few people that it's great, so I decided to give it a go. I'm really enjoying it so far.
