Really? I thought it'd be there, but I was in Ottakar's anyway so I just placed an order with them. Tim Burton is fun too.

Books are fun.
you seem to have really good taste in books!

i'd advise you to read Running With Scissors by Augusten Burroughs

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...498479-7882845

just finished that and also just finished vernon god little, which was extremely good! away to start reading the running man.

I read it a couple of months ago, not the kind of book I'd normally go for but I thought it was really good.
I'm reading "White Trash" by John King just now, s'ok but it's not exactly rocking my world

the lovely bones is my favourite book of all time, seriously. It's so good. I love how Alice Sebold talks about rape and death in such graphic detail but it still reads so peacefully and even nice, its hard to explain but none of it is gruesome. I cried at it too but it's so so good i'd reccomend it to everyone
I read it on holiday last summer and as far as i know its still pretty high in the reading charts

Yeah I dunno whether ir not to read lucky, it doesn't look to good.

The only thing I didn't liek about the lovely bones is how the time period was the same for most the bookt hen they just quickly ran through the years at the end.
