Books?

I read Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk (author of Fight Club) not long ago.

It was fucking brilliant like, i'd highly recommend it.

I'd give that a miss as my Mam (who's opinion on books I trust) said it was a let down, and I've heard a few people say the same.

Lullaby is a mad (in a good way) book with an excellent central concept.

I think you'll enjoy it.

Ive started reading a one called 'Catch 22'. seems canny so far but im not very far into it. has anyone on here read it?

Just finished Anthony Kiedis' book which was quite good.

I recently finished The God Delusion, by Richard Dawkins, great read if you are athiest or agnostic (It might convince you to athieism)

I also read Down and Out in Paris and London by Orwell which is an amazing book

Working my way though Philip K Dicks back catalogue too (Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep aka Blade Runner, A Scanner Darkly etc)

With Catch 22 its a quality book and explains the orgin of the term, which l wont spoil for you

Ive recently enjoyed essex boys and cocky both drug/crime related

Agreed.

Never get tired of reading 1984 either.

thats one of the best books Iv read, also sleepers, Angels and demons, all of the james patterson/alex cross books are decent.
If you like gorey stuff Tess Gerritson is decent or Richard Montinari (sp) - Rosary Girls & Sam Bourne - Righteous men

i recently read a book by edgar allen poe of all people, was silly silly book like but then again he was off his nut on opium when he wrote it apparently

i would like fear and loathing back for spain the morra cuntlips.

Reading Mein Kampf at the moment. It's fucked up.

Get Marching Powder by Rusty Young.

True story & total eye opener into foreign prisons!

its poorly researched drivel in which a highly intelligent man attempts to decieve his audience through deliberate misquotes and by fabricating an environment in which he can breakdown the image of G-d he has just created.

If you're atheist or agnostic it will probably convince you of atheism, if you know the first thing about any of the Abrahamic faiths it seeks out to destroy - then you will find it a joke, as the G-d which Dawkins disproves isn't a G-d that any of the mnonotheistic faiths would recognise as their deity.

Its not that fucked up when compared to the literature he plagarized; just a repetition of much fo the sentiment of that era (some of which is grounded in logic while some of it is stright fucked up).

I'm reading a moderate translation of the Quran at the moment which is truely fucked up; it will go on and on about helping the needy and giving to charity and in the same breath call muslims to arms and call the jews apes.
