Recently finished The Shining again by Stephen King. Now reading At the Mountains of Madness by HP Lovecraft :D
~ 'Paint the skyscrapers with huge totem faces and goblin tikis, and every evening what's left of mankind will retreat to empty zoos and lock itself in cages as protection against the bears and big cats and wolves that pace and watch us from outside the cage bars at night'- Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club
~ We'll float around, hang out on clouds, then we'll come down and have a hangover... ~ Feel free to PM ^.^
It's hilarious, and I would recommend it to just about anyone with a good sense of humour. ; )
oh non-believer, please believe me.
is there honestly nothing in this world
that keeps you living & breathing?
you're a ghost in your own
goddamn city.

I'm re-reading the entire Maura Isles & Jane Rizzoli series by Tess Gerritsen before I buy Keeping The Dead. Out of curiousity, has anyone read Keeping The Dead?

As well as Lovecraft, i'm also finishing off the last couple of chapters of IT by Stephen King, one of my favourite novels :D

Finished IT by King earlier this morning and remembered just why it's my favourite novel. It's such an incredible, powerful story. Now carrying on with Lovecraft :D

I just finished Captain Corelli's Mandolin for the millionth time, I never get tired of it :)
You make me want to dance and sing at the top of my voice. You're the highlight of my day, the one who gets me, the face across the room. You're the song I can't get out of my head. Your eyes pull me in. You're the letter I'll never send, the poem I wish I could write. You’re the sunrise, the rolling clouds, the rain. I see bits of you everywhere.
I can't get into 'Brideshead Revisited'. I don't think I get on too well with Evelyn Waugh, I had the same problem with 'Decline and Fall'.
I'm going to start reading 'Pride and Predjudice' instead.
Just finished the new christopher brookmyre novel, me loves it, he is a friend of mine and I am hoping he is going to help me getting my book published (Y)
Something has changed within me, something is not the same, I'm through with playing by the rules of someone elses game. Too late for second guessing, too late to go back to sleep, its time to trust my instincts, close my eyes and leap....
Somethings I cannot change, but till I try I'll never know...

Big hugs to all my friends on here, thanks for your constant support - love you guys
