I picked up Confessions of a Pagan Nun (it's a true story/memoir) but I'm not sure I"ll be able to get into it.

Yes, it's sad that she felt she needed so much male attention to compensate for whatever was missing in her life. But the point of it is the fact that she overcomes the problem. It's not just about a woman sleeping around. The author gets very much into the root of the problem, how she recognized it, and ultimately dealt with it.

I have, but still haven't read, Killing Pablo (also by Bowden). There are apparently a couple movies supposedly in stages of development for it, so I should probably read it before I get in the "book after the movie" stage again!
I've been re-reading a lot of Twain lately.
I'm struggling through Lolita at the moment. Really struggling. Struggling to find what makes it so applauded, I guess? If it's the language, then I truly give up on trying to understand classic literature. There's poetic, flowing writing in many places. No matter how you romanticise this book, it's still a story of a vile and predatory man. Is it that it's nice to see a human side to a man with deep troubles? Only if you're one who thinks all criminal types are 2-dimensional. I dunno.
