I'm currently reading Holes by Louis Sachar (for the third time). Great novel, by the way. I finished Chapter 8 days ago.

Ben Cartwright: I don't have anything against education - as long as it doesn't interfere with your thinking!

Ooooh. The Outsiders, another good novel. Did you know that she was sixteen when she finished her novel, S.E. Hinton??

"count of monte cristo" is a great book, one of my favorites -- but I'm not the book expert, I just got into classic books the past year.

Currently: Cities of the Plain, by Cormac McCarthy

Next ReRead: The Road, by Cormac McCarthy, in anticipation of the movie

Next New Read: I usually decide on a whim, but my choices are
The Satanic Verses (Salman Rushdie), something I've been meaning to read for two or three years now but keep putting off,
The Crying of Lot 49 (Thomas Pynchon), by Chicken's recommendation (I think this is the one he said to get... regardless, it's the one I got),
or The Shadow of the Wind (Carlos Ruiz Zafon), some random book that looked interesting... I haven't bought a book this way in too long.

Favorite Book: The Box Man, by Kobo Abe

Currently: The Vintage Book of Amnesia (an anthology of short fiction in which all of the stories feature amnesia or memory loss as a storytelling mechanism)

Next Reread: Inherent Vice, by Thomas Pynchon (I wanted to reread it since the minute I finished it...)

Next Fresh Read: no idea yet. I might track down Shakespeare's Timon of Athens, as I haven't read that yet and Nabokov makes a few references to it in Pale Fire. (Which is fantastic, by the boo.)

Favorite Book: Gravity's Rainbow, by Thomas Pynchon. Runner up might be Joseph Heller's Catch-22, which was the book that showed me, for the first time, the immense power of competent fiction. It's what inspired me to write many years ago, and, consequently, I owe it my sanity.
