I just finished Satanic Verses - it was good.

Sarah said Catch 22 is a little confusing trying to keep up with the characters, and I don't want to be confused tonight, I want to be lightly entertained, dammit. :angry: Is she right?
 
VP, don't read Catch 22 if you want light reading...but, do read it one day.

Snow, I'll make myself useful, but, how can I when I'm so fucking useless most of the time???
 
Oh, I know! For good summer mindless drivel, I discovered Elizabeth George mysteries about 6 or 7 years ago and read like 10 of her books in rapid succession. I'm sure she must have written more since then.

Snow, I told you about her. VP, I don't think they're like reading Proust, but, not sure they are mindless either. Good books, though, and, many were turned into good TV shows.
 
When I was in high school, I used to go to the library during my free period and read from the same novel everyday. I read quite a few Paul Quarrington novels. I can't remember which ones now, but I remember enjoying them.

I think I'm going to have to get to the library again soon.

Ever take out a book with a really pretty cover only to find out the inside really, really sucked. Haha.


In high school I skipped class to sit in the caf and read if I was in the middle of a good book, while all the cool kids played euchre...biggest nerd ever. I got caught too which was the saddest part...being made an example of and having it explained what you were doing while you skipped :happy: great times :happy:

I'm thinking long distance...or whatever distance the running portion of a triathlon would be..

They are what they are, like you said, good stories. :) I just meant that you don't really have to put a lot of thought or effort into reading them.

I didn't know that they'd been made into television!

Since the're mysteries, you might tend to at least guess at whodunnit, which engages you a tad more than your typical breezy fare.

The BBC made a series called "The Inspector Lyndley Mysteries". I think it was the BBC. Anyway, my Dad records them and I've watched a few.

Thanks, Carlos, and, thanks, Snow, for acknowledging my dorkdom. :)

get me a long distance runner and I'll acknowledge your greatness. shortlived though it may be :)

and yeah OJ is an acid..you know what I meant/aside


anyone read Cell yet?




Dean Martin is value for money guys :drool:
 
I cuffed a fair bit in high school, didn't ever get caught. Nearly did a few times... haha. Looking back now, I was more bored when I was cuffing than I would've been in class.

I can't believe it's nearly ten years since I graduated :faint:
