Bridge across my sorrows. Christina Noble
If you want to get some insight into why bad things happen to relatively nice people then I recommend this. It is not what happens to you, but what you do with the experience, that counts

Finally got around to unpacking a box of books that's been in the basement since we last moved house (~2 years ago), and re-found my copy of 'How to lose friends and infuriate people' by Jonar C. Nadar.

I made the mistake of bringing it to work this morning, and I think one of my colleagues may have just taken a shine to it as well!

rereading ''skinny legs and all'' by Tom Robbins

twilight, then the next 3..... excellent - stephanie meyer

have recently renewed the love of reading.... can't get enough!!!

Which one is that? I read Breath near the end of last year and thought it was great, I really liked his style. Found another of his books in my sisters bookcase but it's a bit kiddy.

Which one?

The Power of one by Bryce Courtenay

I read all the Matthew Reilly books over Chrissy and the last year, their not a hard read but if you like book with a littl adventure and things blowing up there a good read. His later books writen about treasure and saving the world where better than the first IMO.

Occy's biography and Fishing for stars by Bryce Courtney...Occy was good the other one was the basically the same as all his other books.......

Rereading for the 5th time A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole.
You'll never forget the antics of Ignatius J. Reilly.

Classic written in mid to late 60's by a young Toole who went on to commit suicide at 32 y.o. in my birth year (1969). His mum pestered editors with the one and only manuscriptfor a decade until someone actually read it hoping the first page was crap so he could reject it. Won the Pulitzer prize for fiction in 1981.

A few people posting in that thread may find one of the books I'm reading at the moment interesting, the God Delusion by Richard Dawkins.

Used to, when we had one littlie, used to sit by his bed in a bean-bag and read to him, the missus had to come in and wake me up a few times....now I sit on the couch with one on each leg, no chance of sleeping with 2 kids asking questions on every detail!

2000AD. Not the actual issues in the photos, but piles upon piles of old ones bought on ebay, an addiction which is swiftly leading me to financial ruin...






"Super-charging your reality with thrill-injected turbo-power" ..heh...sounds like windsurfing
