| I just finished "The Bride Stripped Bare" by Anonymous (Nikki Gemmel). It was fantastic, highly recommended. Last week I read "The Life of Pi", by Yann Martel, which is the best book I've read for ages, still thinking about it now. I'd recomennd it, amazing insight into the lies we must tell ourselves to survive life's trauma, this one is a classic, just beautiful. I also read "Vernon God Little" by DBC Pierre last week which I really enjoyed, but it wasn't half as good as the other two.

| I loved the lion the witch and the wardrobe, I never thought about it in theological terms, because I was so young when I read it, and I led a blissfully heathen childhood. I have to reread that, and the neverending story too, and all of Hunter S's books. The Great Gatsby is one of those treats I still have to look forward to. I have to visit the library. I just reread Gerald Durrell's "The Bafut Beagles". He was my favourite author in the world when I was a kid. It's a fantastic book, transports you to the heart of heart of Africa to indulge in whiskey drinking capers with the Bafut tribal dignitaries. |

Right now my favorite is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I'm in the middle of Songs of the Doomed, and it's excellent I ordered The Rum Diary a few days ago from Amazon... I'm hoping it will arrive soon. It will prolly become my new favorite and make Fear and Loathing #2.

| I recently read, Cyrano De Bergerac in English. Even though I had to read it, I enjoyed it. It's interesting to see all of modern comedy and drama is based on this play. I reccomend you all check it out. It's a fairly easy read.
