Waiting rather impatiently for my new Dresden Files book to arrive in the mail (autographed to me by the author. Yay.)

I'm currently re-reading Snuff by Chuck Palahnuik. It's a good book. I need to pick up his new book though.

A lot of people have recommended that to me, but after seeing the movie Fight Club I'm a little scared to. Maybe I'll try to catch up on my reading this summer.

I recently read a book that not only became one of my favorites, but reminded me of Reaper: Repossessed by A.M. Jenkins. It's about a demon who's sick of working in Hell, so he decides to take a vacation on Earth...by possessing the body of an American teenage boy. It's hilarious and clever, the demon's take on everything from sins to sneezes absolutely fun to read. Deeper issues are weaved into the story as well, giving it much more weight than one may expect.

Oh, that sounds like a good one, edgy, and reminds me a bit of the book Pandemonium that onyourmark told me about and I recommended a few pages back. I'm going to look for this one.

I just finished Better Not Cry: Stories For Christmas by Augusten Burroughs and I loved it. I love Christmas and AB, so if you put the two together it doesn't get better than that. I also read Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel and I really liked it. I'm kind of a sucker for historical fiction, and Tudor England is one of my favourite settings so I'm not surprised that I enjoyed it so much.

I'm currently reading volume #1 of Eerie Cuties, since I just got it in the mail! (Never heard of EC? Shame! You can see what I'm talking about here: www.eeriecuties.com) I read the comics online obsessively, but it's so much more fun getting to read them together in a printed book! I'm also reading Winter Town by Stephen Emond. I adore the boy/girl friendship in it so far. I read his previous book, Happyface, over the summer and fell in love instantly with the writing and art. (Yes, a novel with art in it! Awesome, yes?!) I'm very easily more into fantasies than contemporaries, so that has to say something good about this guy's writing, for me to love it as much as I do...haha. |
