Orphans Preferred: The Twisted Truth and Lasting Legend of the Pony Express by Christopher Corbett. A little slow at first but once he gets into talking about how all the myths and legends came about afterwards it gets pretty funny and has a better flow. Currently reading You Shall Know Our Velocity by Eggers. So far it's an interesting story but the narrator's a little whiney.

The last book I read was a journalism text I'm proofreading. The last book I finished was probably CatSpeak, a book my mom got me in honor of our getting a cat.

I just finished Patricia Cornwell's latest book - pretty good - and am now getting ready to sink my teeth into the latest in the Vampire Chronicles from Ann Rice.\

I read Exile's Honor by Mercedes Lackey. It's one of the Valdemar series, and I enjoyed it.

Right now I spend most of my time reading "Clinical Social Work Practice" and "What to Say and When to Say It", both text books for school. For pleasure... I can't remember what I last read. It was back at the end of August.

Just finished reading Michael Moore's latest book, "Dude, where's my country?". I suggest everybody pick up something of his and read it, or rent/buy his movie "Bowling for Columbine". This guy has some important things to say, even though some of his reporting is a bit scattershot and all over the map. You may not agree with everything he has to say, but he does a good job of asking many hard questions in a way that is refreshing and may actually help people learn some things.

outside of
school and the internet the last book i read was one of the vampire chronicles
by anne rice. i got hooked and me and one of my close friends set out
to read the entire collection. i was reading from the latest to the beginning
and she going the right way. the last one i read was the vampire armand.
good book. i was supposed to read her newest one blackwood farm but i
just cant seem to get into it. for school there have been lots in the
last year. ifs weird but i never read majority of the classics that they
usually force you to read in school. i am into jane austen but the movies
are what i watch. pride and prejudice being my favorite. i read the book
also though it was so good. on the internet there are novels all over
the place. i have read so
many in all kinds of genres. erotic, sci fi, mystery, childrens, suspence,
romance, contemporary, blah blah blah. i usually try to save the best
ones on my computer. but i can reread them. i guess i will have to wait
a few years and see if i forget them. the vampire armand was cool. it
was just the history of armand and stuff. cool book like all the rest
of rices books.
