Weird and not what I expected, but not bad so far nonetheless. I thought it was about urban exploration, and I guess you could consider it that if you include exploring your work place.
I just finished reading Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk. He is my favorite author now. So amazing!! Now I'm starting Different Seasons by Stephen King.
The one you love and the one who loves you are never, ever the same person.

Those are basically my two favorite authors haha. I loved Invisible Monsters that is one of my favorites.
Right so I gave up on 1984 pretty much and am now going to start on "But Inside Im Screaming" by Elizabeth Flock.
Technically its not a book (well not a novel anyway), but rather an epic poem, but I, like two other people in this thread, am reading "Paradise Lost" by John Milton. Personally, I absoloutely LOVE it, it's amazing!!! The language is gorgeous and the imagery is incredible, it's honestly a joy to read. It's a slow read because it's a poem, and really for best effect should be read aloud, but it's well worth it, absoloutely brilliant.

Just finished reading Emma and I by Sheila Hocken, it's about a woman and her guide dog. It was one of my favourite books when I was younger so I had to read it again.
I'm reading David Hume's 'An Inquiry into Human Understanding', Nietzsche's 'Beyond Good and Evil', Victim: The Secret Tapes of Marilyn Monroe and Inside Little Britain.
I spent all yesterday reading The dogs of Babel by Carolyn Parkhurst from cover to cover. It's one of the best books I've read tbh. Absolutely devestating, beautiful and sincere. It's the kind of book you want to start over as soon as you've put it down.
I'm reading the Dice man by Luke Rhinehart. Struggling to finish it, living by the dice is an interesting idea, but it is far too long and repetitive. If it was half the size it would be much better.
I'm in the middle of Choke by Chuck Palahniuk and am really enjoy it. Its the second book I've read by him and each one gets better and better.
love Palahniuk.
Right now I'm reading:
Anna Gavalda - Je voudrais que quelqu'un m'attende quelque part
Jeffrey Eugenides - the virgin suicides
Ovid - Metamorphoses
Bernad-Henri Lévy - American Vertigo
Shakespeare - Twelfth Night
I'm reading David Hume's 'An Inquiry into Human Understanding', Nietzsche's 'Beyond Good and Evil', Victim: The Secret Tapes of Marilyn Monroe and Inside Little Britain.
so just a bit of light reading then
ive just started Of Human Bondage by Somerset Maughaum, (dont think thats spelt right!)
"We couldn't imagine the emptiness of a creature who put a razor to her wrists and opened her veins, the emptiness and the calm."
