Island by Aldous Huxley. Check it out if you haven't already. I'm about forty pages in. This book depicts a paradise that is changed by a shipwrecked journalist with a flair for the sensational(as well as being corrupt). This is a simple way of describing the story. Any book you want to talk about folks. :-D :-D

No way, I'm reading that too!   :-D

I just finished "The Curious Incident of a Dog In The Night" (I think?)  By Mark Haddon.

FUCKING AMAZING BOOK. 

I highly encourage everyone to read it.  It's such an easy yet classic read.  Uplifting good stuff.

I'm in the middle of "A Tale of Two Cities" which I paused to read the Haddon book...it's kinda good...but I don't really get it....it's my first Dickens experience.

The latest National Geographic has some amazing information on the planet Saturn(and photography).

Playboy....

Honestly though, this whole post whoring thing is getting to be a little ridiculous.  But does having a higher post count make a cooler pauger?

Dickens=most overrated ever, IMO.  He takes so much time to say so very little, zzzzzzzzzzz.
