hey there... just wondering, what are you guys reading these days?

I just recently finished a book of poetry by Eric Victorino called "Coma Therapy". He was the lead singer of a band called Strata. It was actually one of the first times I've read poetry on my own...in the past I've been forced to read it because of school
The book was really good, some of the poems gave you insight into what it's like to be a touring musician, while others were just about events that took place in his life.

Now, I'm about to start reading "the Husband" by Dean Koontz. I'm a big fan of his books so I'm looking forward to reading this.

So, what about you?

^havent read the poety one. sounds like it might be good though =]

hm... well i just recently read "The Herion Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rockstar" by Nikki Sixx and it was AMAZING! and "Velocity" by Dean Koontz. both fantastic.

so now im reading "Into the Wild" its a pretty good book so far

*le gasp* Velocity was the last Koontz book I read!! I loved it

Into the wild sounds familiar....not sure why...who wrote it?

wasnt it? i thought i had it figured out but... NO!! ha ha it was awesome

um... the made Into the Wild a movie, which is FABULOUS! but the author of the book is Jon Krakauer

Letters to a Young Poet

....I just got my copy, it's amazing and so inspiration. If you're a writer, you MUST get this, it's like the Bible of writers lol.

^^ really? I've never heard of it but it sounds like something I'd like to check out...

Ohh, it's a MUST read, do check it out as soon as you can

I have just started a book called The Next Killings. It is a story about killings at a private catholic school. Don't know much else just started it seriously.

I'm about to start reading "99 Coffins" by David Wellington - it's a historical vampire tale. I saw this book at B&N a few weeks after seeing the movie 30 days of Night and had to buy it. I've always loved vampire stories, even as a kid

on a sidenote...my most favorite author is Stephen King...he is just amazing, I have read almost all of his books . I have Everything's Eventual which consists of some short stories - all on the freaky/oddball side of course
Dean Koontz is great as well, I've read alot of his stuff.

I am reading Scar Tissue by Anthony Kedis, it's really good
i've actually been reading it since christmas, haha
i read quite a bit when i first got it, but then when i started working in January i haven't really read very much, but i still read it now again, take it to work sometimes and read when it's slow and theres no one there.

I wanna read the book that Slash wrote, and i wanna read that Heroin Diaries one too

okay im gonna respond to many ppl in this one so yeah... lol

Serge: might have to check that out sounds amazing

Sam: yeah so far the book is really good. oo you must watch the movie. its awesome sauce

Donna: i love stephen king too!! one of my favs

Tara: i didnt know Slash wrote a book?! i must read it. and the heroin diaries is a very very good book too

If you do check it out, let me know how you like it

It's a very short, but brilliant read.

Hmmmm I've never noticed this thread before. I don't get alot of spare time for leisure reading,but when I do, I usually pick up something by Stephen King, Tom Clancy, Michael Crichton, or Dean Koontz. I am currently reading the latest by Dean Koontz called Odd Hours.

i've got a couple of things going on at the same time, depending on my mood. one is Dante's Inferno. slowest read ever since i'm reading the translations as well as the commentary. other thing is sci-fi....The Nonborn King by Julian May (part of the Sage of Pliocene Exile series).

I love Dantes Inferno

have you read the rest of the Divine Comedy as well?

Ive been reading Dan Brown's Angels and Demons. He is the author who wrote the Davinci Code. I love all of his work because he includes really organizations and statistics, so it is difficult to seperate reality from fiction.

I've been reading FEAR by Jeff Abbot
