| My favorite authors are Michael Connelly, Clive Cussler and Robert Crais. Having said that, ever 3 weeks I read 2 new books that I check out from the library by various authors. Recently I finished The Narrows by Connelly. Painted House by Grisham is great also, what didn't you like about the ending? |

hehehe...i definitely love history. i read a lot of those and i have some huge art history textbooks, but i read other stuff too like my sister is a chemistry major, so i've been reading through some of her upper level stuff lately. i taught myself calc 2 one summer, but that was a bitch. |

science fiction!!!
Arthur C Clarke - Rendezvous with Rama <- absolutely amazing
(much better than 2001 a space odyssey)
I am reading Rendevous with rama 2 now, and the funny thing is, they are making a movie out of it!! It'll be released in 2006!
Can't wait, it will be an amazing film.
My view of life was completely changed when I read "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho. It will blow your mind.
yea, that's my 2 cents |

Just read "The da Vinci Code: Fact or Fiction" critique...and all I have to say is making Dan Brown look like a complete retard is Brilliant...and no...I don't fully agree/understand all the 'Good Book' has to offer.
It just goes to show that if you don't do your research properly, then what you write as fiction should remain fiction and be published as such. |

Irvine Welsh writes amazing books! Begbie and Juice Terry are the most amazing characters ever written!
For the past couple of months I've been reading Tom Clancy's books, I'm currently halfway through Rainbow Six and I'm enjoying it very much!
For my sci-fi fix I like to read Iain M Bank books as well. :) |

Just reading Sputnik Sweetheart. I read his newest book "Kafka Off Shore" 2 months ago. It hasnt even been translated into English yet. Awesome, though I prefer his older works. |
