boomana Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 A must for everyone's holiday reading list. I have to buy a new one every year because I always give mine away. My fav story is "Dinah the Christmas Whore." It's really very touching as well as being hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 If one is going to mention holiday reading, I highly recommend Orson Scott Card, Lost Boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salt Peanuts Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 Well, I was trying to read Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, but it was just taking too long. As such, I just downloaded the audiobook version of it and been listening to it on my commute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomana Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 Just finished Anthony De Mello's Awareness two days ago, started reading it again yesterday. I'm a huge Anthony De Mello fan, though fandom is not the right vibe. Some crazy-ass Jesuit priest in a Hawaiian shirt turned me onto him years ago. In the words of Ken36, good stuff.
