Right is Wrong by Arianna Huffington

Should be a jolly good time.

persistance will prevail!!

Good choice.

Been reading King's "Night Shift".

It's been good so far. I've only read the first 5 stories thus far.

My favorite has definitely been "Jerusalem's Lot". Scary shit.

I wonder if this short story is supposed to be a sort of introduction into King's book "Salem's Lot"... I guess it would explain some things.

Anybody else read this book?

I agree.

The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells

Zombie Survival Guide

I have a very well worn copy sitting on my bookshelf. I swear, if a zombie apocolapse ever happens I will grab that book and run.

But oooooooooooh, I wanna read World War Z. They're making a zombie out of it, apparently, though I don't know how concrete that is.

Just wrapped up the last Dresden Files book. Looking for something else to read.

I'm reading Under the Net by Iris Murdoch and The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoevsky.

I was reading 'The Idiot' while waiting for a train and an elderly man came up to me asked if i was reading my own autobiography.
Then we talked about books until the train arrived. Gotta love old people.

i couldnt get into another cormac mcarthy straight away so i went for a david sedaris. sometimes you want something a little less dense, a little easier to read. its my first of his after years of being hounded to read his books and i gotta say i love it, i started with naked and the first few chapters especially had me cracking up.
