Aw, shucks.
It appears as though we have similar tastes in books. I loved Hemingway in high school, there's something special about the way he used conversational Spanish in his stories.

Nina 04-05-2002 09:02 PM

I love Hemingway. He was such a good one. I read a great biography of him by A. E. Hotchner called Papa Hemingway.

I just started getting into Heinlein. I loved The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. I run a Book of the Month Club on my site and that was the first book we read.

Right now I'm re-reading Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury.
And I'm about to start The Dharma Bums by Jack Kerouac.

How about you?

Right now my To Read list consists of Nausea by Jean-Paul Sartre and Creation by Gore Vidal along with several large Microsft books as I get geared up for my first test in the MSCE track.

currently reading " Killing Pablo" By Mark Bowden. It's about the rise and fall of Pablo Escobar.

Next up is " The Human Stain" by Phillip Roth

Anything by Dan Simmions especially "Summer of Night" or "Carrion Comfort" If you like horror/fantasy type stuff then you should check out Clive Barkers " Great and Secret Show" And it's sequal " Everville"

I just read " The Bottoms" By Joe Landsdale and loved it.

Also check out Nicholson Baker's " The Fermata" It's about a guy who learns that he can stop time and uses this power to live out his every sexual perversion :)

And of course if you only read 2 books in your life they should be " If I Die In a Combat Zone " And " The Things They Carried " By tim 'o brien


don't forget " Fight Club" Too.
