Beth (Wilsmhurst, bethbear on here) has that and I was pestering her for it a while ago. I've been reading Cloud Atlas as I bought it a while ago and never got round to reading it. It's bloody weird!

Stephen King - Cujo. I started reading this last night, will probably be finished it by Wednesday or so.

Last week I read Belle De Jour - The further adventures of a London call girl (Rubbish) then Irvine Welsh - The bedroom secrets of the master chefs. I thought the latter was a pretty enjoyable read, however, took me a good few chapters to get right into it.

After Cujo, I'm going to read Dreamcatcher, also by King. Mediocre movie, hopefully better book.

the movie raped everything i liked about the book
has a FAR superior ending, and the story is explained properly rather than missing out massive chunks.

I read that about a month ago, it's grrreat. Though when I read it, some dogs started going mental outside...

At the moment I'm reading Battle Royale. Mmm, gory.

Cool, the movie was ok in bits but needed more background and explanation. Hope the book does itself justice.

Im just a major Stephen King fan through and through. Im liking it so far. I like how he ties in some of his books, like how in Cujo he ties in the whole Frank Dodd thing from the Dead Zone (Another awesome book btw)
I dont like how King goes on about sexual things when they have no relevance, that I can see anyway, to the story in hand. I.E talking about a 4 year olds scrotum. : /
Apart from that, love him. Been reading his work since I was about 8. I need to attempt to re-read the Stand one day heh

It's quite good, but his overuse of anti-religious arguments weakens his arguments for secularism. And you can pretty much skip any section he discusses politics in it.
