For lack of a better title, The Book Thread!
JP:
I'm currently reading This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
That's right, I like F. Scott Fitzgerald.

I like fucked up books. If they have sex, drugs and violence (and zombies) in them, I should theoretically like it. Some of my favourite books are
Kiss Me, Judas - Will Christopher Baer
Glamorama -Brett Easton Ellis
Invisible Monsters -Chuck Palahniuk
The Wooden Bird - Jerzy Kosinski
Mother Night - Kurt Vonnegut
Catcher In The Rye
Hearts In Atlantis/Rose Madder - Stephan King
Black Hawk Down - Mark Bowden
Menstruating Mall - Carlton Mellick III
ETC.
I'm currently reading Sarah by JT LeRoy, its a fucking halarious book about truck stop hookers and such. NOTE: I fucking hated Life of Pi.
Praeserpium Machinarum:
The only books I consider a must are Dune and Lord of the Rings, but I think Lotr is pretty tedious in passages hence why I have only read them once. It's been so long since a book really grabbed me, I just ordered(library) Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, I hope it will break the curse. Since I am reading The Da Vinci Code now, and while it's fun and all, it's not that good.
Se7en:
You know what? maybe the new TV and movies section should include books too? Just a thought.

I agree with most of the things you said in that post, specially Ellis. But do you perchance mean the painted bird? Because that was a fucking brilliant, although slightly shattering, book. If the wooden bird is something else, tell me what it's about, I am a big fan of kosinski.
