High Fidelity? It's good, similar to the movie, but Hornby definitely crafts it together well.

I bought a copy of High Fidelity, it's in my "to read pile"

 

Right now I'm reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

i've got about 60 pages of 'on the road: the original scrolls' left, then i start 'the stuff of thought: language as a window into human nature'.

How was it? It's next on my list. Right now I'm reading Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer but in a very slow speed.

That's how I read Everything is Illuminated. It was one of those books that I wanted to blow through because I liked it so much, but couldn't because I wanted it all to sink in.

 

currently reading Son of a Witch by Gregory Maguire.

I like Son of a Witch better than I like Wicked, and I like Wicked a lot. Maguire did a fabulous job of going back to his Oz and telling the story about what happened to Liir after Elphaba died.

i keep meaning to pick up a book to do something mentally, but i just haven't been able to get around to it..

I just read "The Memory Keepers Daughter." It was really good. I can't remember the author, but it was really good. Now I"m reading a book called "Blindness" by Jose Saramago. The story seems really good, but I don't like the way he has written it. He seems not to like periods and loves run on sentences.

I'm reading "Variable Star" by Spider Robinson (based off Robert Heinlein's unwritten book). It's actually pretty good. The only book I've read in a few months that actually vividly put each sentence in my head, rather than "key events". It's funny, sad, tense, energetic, all in one...the author really found a way to express the suspense of some scenes, the humor of others.

The Best Short Stories 2004

 

It's all sci-fi ones... the last one I read was about some prison with no guards and magical transvestites... it was a little weird.

Posted

Azalroth: I have a simular book I have yet to get through...the difference being my book centers on Monty Python. :angry: ;)

 

Right now, I'm going back and forth between Next by Michael Crichton, and Wonderful Tonight by Pattie Boyd.

Finally finished Extremly Loud And Incredibly Close. Great book, I really enjoyed it.

 

Will begin to read High Fidelity soon.

I've started at least 4 books that I haven't finished. I don't make reading a high enough priority, I am going to finish a book at some point today or tonight.
