Enduring Love by Ian McEwan
Will read The Hoax by Clifford Irving

I just finished reading The Stupidest Angel by Christopher Moore. I loved it, so I might read it over again. It's quick.

I'm right now reading the German version of David Sedaris' "Me Talk Pretty One Day" and listen at the same time to the English audiobook version, a great way to practice!

I love his books, they have that kind of humor which totally appeals to me. By the way, I also sometimes get the feeling that he's quite Aspie-like.

I'm currently reading Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. Victorian novels are my favorite, but I'll read just about anything.

I've also recently been fascinated with the Amish lifestyle, so I've read all the books by Beverly Lewis. They're Christian literature, and I'm not Christian, but I still like them. Strangely, I've enjoyed quite a few books by Christian authors. I think it's the fact that we have similar moral beliefs.

Eldest. Yes that's right, another slighly insane Eragon fangirl.

Man For All Seasons

The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove by Christopher Moore. Oh so funny, but oh so inappropriate.

The Stranger by, Albert Camus

"L'etranger" !
i've read it when i was 14 or so (long time ago )
must have been one of the first books that grabbed me
i still remember the story a little, could it be the main character is a somewhat aspie-ish?

The Best Science Short Stories of 2003, edited by Oliver Sacks.

"A Brief History of Modern Psychology" by Ludy T. Benjamin, Jr.
So far it keeps saying how modern psychology started in America. So I'm 1/4 of the way through the book, and it's just started talking about how various Americans studied under teachers in Germany and took ideas back to the states. Strangely, off the top of my head, Freud, Jung and Adler are the only psychologists I could have named.

Sounds interesting, aylissa. I've read a few of Sacks' books recently. I hadn't seen that. I must try to get hold of "Uncle Tungsten".

Actually I didn't have the book in front of me. The title is: The Best American Science Writing 2003
Oliver Sacks is one of my favorite authors.

Neuromancer by William Gibson (Finally)

The Gunslinger by Stephen King. Figured I was getting over my head in the roleplay and decided to learn more. It's not quite like the rest of his writing - the style is distinctly different - but I like it so far.

Currently reading: A biography of Michael Strunge, a Danish 80's "punk poet". And a couple of Strunge's works.

I hope you enjoy it. I did... that and his subsequent books.
