Anybody read a good book lately?

Beautiful. Breathtaking...

Find your balls.


(And by the way, McCarthy's prose is actually breathtaking. But Rome is still a nonhetero.)

[Rome]

Da Road is fargin awesome man.  It's like sad and gray and dirty and like the man and da kid are like walking through the wasteland and shtein and it's like farging weird.


Better?

[rjs246]

No.

Just bought Book of Air and Shadows.  Its about finding a lost Shakespear work, it is kinda like Da Vinci code for literary geeks.  I actually thought it was much better than Da Vinci code but I'm not sure if I would say its better than Angels and Demons. 

Anyway, a fresh take on an idea that is rapidly becoming overdone.

I'm not arguing that, but it doesn't change the fact that Oprah, and every one of her fans, should be thrown into the nearest trash compactor.

I can understand the annoyance with the people who take her word for the gospel, but I still don't get the issue with Oprah.  I don't blame Jesus because people worship him.  I blame the people for being idiots. 

I think your anger is misplaced.  Don't hate the playa, hate the game. 

[rjs246]

You think my anger is misplaced? Wow. What an astute observation. You clearly missed your calling.

[rjs246]

Oh, and farg Oprah.

Dr. Seuss keepin' it real:

You don't read. Go whine about people who like stuff you don't in another thread.

Bought McCarthy's The Road on Friday for my flight home (with a big old "Oprah's Book Club" emblem on it just the way I like it).

Just finished it. Amazing. Everyone should read his shtein. Everyone except Oprah. And anyone that likes Oprah.

I'm about halfway through The Alienist by Caleb Carr.  It's really a very good serial killer book for anyone who is interested in that type of thing.

[rjs246]

I forgot to mention that I finished Gates of Fire. It's the more historically accurate story of the battle of Thermopylae, which is the same story that inspired 300.

The story is fascinating, but as with most ancient-historical-fiction it wasnt especially well written and I had trouble getting through it. History buffs will probably love it.

Finished Johnny Cash's autobiography, good read if you're a fan, if you're a casual listener you probably wouldn't like it.
