^^i kind of agree with you Maya. I read it in HS, then read it 10 years later when my parents sent me a box of my old stuff and I felt the same way.

Meat is Murder-a v. short book about The Smiths from the 33 1/3 series. Next is ABBA!!!

I just started Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk last night. It's the only book from him I haven't read, and I love it already.

kiryu no naru oto (meaning "the howling of aerial currents") by Yusuke Maki


this is a very interesting essay based on Carlos Castaneda's the teaching of Don Juan, a separate reality, journey to ixtlan and tales of power. I read it in my school days, and now over again. if there exists the English version of it, I can recommend it to faust.

I loved Delicatessen, I gues I like sick too.

Has anybody read Glamourama? I think I might try to read it again when I finish Survivor. I read it years ago, but found it oddly confusing.

Saturnine-I like Palahniuk's writing style and bizarre subject matters. You simply must read Invisible Monsters, my fav of all his books. Diary is my least fav, but still very good.
