I am still reading the trilogy, I read the first book a few years ago and just picked it up again. Hopefully I can squeeze it in before I am forced to drop everything for this later in the month: ![[image loading]](http://img.amazon.ca/images/I/51FKUEeqMhL._SS500_.jpg) | ||

Seriously though, I've never understood what's so great about books... People say they're so great and you get hooked and what not, but I've never in my life read a book that I've wanted to continue reading. If any, the first half of Twilight (Don't hate), because I'm gay and romances are all cute and that, but most of the times, people reccomend me a book that would fit me perfectly (pelple that know me, what kinda movies, games that I like) and I read until I need to do something else, and then never pick the thing up again because it's so boring... My swedish teacher used to say it's to escape reality, but I'd much rather just daydream and "write" my own "book" in that way... /rant I guess Since people like posting pictures, this is what I read now. (for school though, lol) ![[image loading]](http://www.hauntedshop.co.uk/images/frankensteinbk.jpg) | ||

![[image loading]](http://dentonlibrary.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/all-the-pretty.jpg) And about to start: ![[image loading]](http://blackcatbooks.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/n47746.jpg) All The Pretty Horses was fantastic, McCarthy is one of my favorite authors. Also, from what I've heard, A Prayer for Owen Meany is an amazing book, so I'm really looking forward to it. | ||

Do not read this piece of shit. I am not kidding. Basically it's about this kid the author probably wishes he could be - he calls himself a Christian and has sex with this chick who brags about his penis size. A real self-applauditary shit fest. Only read it if you enjoy reading about fictionary people bragging about themselves and their Christianity. The whole book is narrated by Owen's friend who just goes on and on about what a great guy Owen is. It's like fucking name-dropping the whole way through. + Show Spoiler + Basically Owen goes around telling everyone he is the chosen one, and ends up saving the day by dying for his friends like Jesus fucking Christ. Some seriously gayass shit in this book. | ||

![[image loading]](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_R05jS49ctgc/SUa9oRuJgVI/AAAAAAAAAKo/Td_WyrIdjX4/s400/dexter.jpg) Just finished with the Dexter books. I liked the first one but the rest wasn't that great. I would stick with the tv-series. | ||
