I saw that Scrubbin Bubbles got a Chuck Palahniuk book for SS from Lord Kain and was wondering what else everyone is reading?

I'm currently reading Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk and some Cowboy Bebop manga. I just finished Ishmael by Daniel Quinn and Choke by Chuck as well.

I finished Choke last night, and now im reading Stranger Than Fiction.

I read online and magazines mostly. I don't have the attention span for books these days. The last book I read was Sting's autobiography (Tiny Music) in the spring. It was pretty good. Currently I'm reading Lure the Tiger Out of the Mountain, which is a Chinese book of strategy. But it's basically a bathroom book.

I don't read books. I really should start reading something other than hackaday and google news.

Hubcap · 12-31-2005, 12:57 PM

i read magazines and online forums just because i dont have the time or patience to sit around and read a book.

I'm reading the Wheel of time. by Robert Jordan

I'm at book 2,

And Scrubbin!! was it good??? tell me what you think of the story plz!!

Cr@cKpiPe tE@sEr noOb! · 12-31-2005, 03:10 PM

I've finished these:

and am currently reading this:

I've never really seen the movie, just clips here and there. I doubt, however, the movie is as melancholy as the actual novel. It's pretty trippy though, and enjoyable. The Barnes & Noble classics is a great series. They take the classic novels and sell them for about $5. They're very good quality with glossy covers AND they have introductions and end notes to help u understand about the author and story.

Holy shit! You have never seen the Wizard of Oz?

But yeah, it's not very melancholoy at all. Dorothy whines about how nobody at home understands her, and then whines because she wants to go home. The rest is just dancing midgets and singing, and on that level it is a smash.

Tacdriver · 12-31-2005, 03:19 PM

I don't read anymore unless I'm forced to. I like audio books. My mind doesn't seem to wander as much while listening as opposed to reading. You know what I mean?

I've been into a lot of Richar Marcinko and Tom Clancy stuff lately. In "The Sum of All Fears" I love how it takes around 3-4 minutes for Clancy to describe how a nuclear bomb goes off! In all actuality it only happens in a period of a nanosecond.! Killer!

The whole story kicked ass, as does anything by Chuck. It was as twisted as Id expected and then some, thanks again

djsoulriot · 12-31-2005, 03:37 PM

Currently reading Forever Odd by Dean Koontz...

Moving on to American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis ( I believe)

And then attempting The Stand one more time by Stephen King.

I'm not the reader in my family, that honor goes to my dad. I only like how-to books and reading that teaches me something.
