that seems great! congratulations!
well, right now im reading a book called "the stranger" by Camus, whom was a french living through their civil war...its a great story about existentialism and brings up many topics that seem worthy of thinking over...i highly recommend it, that is, if you havent already read it ^^ then this would be pointless lol....

HaHa...funny you should ask. I collect antique books, so I really read a lot of intelligent books. You might not believe that^ though, when I tell you that the best ones I've read lately (that are modern day) are Youth in Revolt, Geek Love, and Being Alexander. I like crazy humor.
But right now I happen to be reading one of those really bad Gothic 25-cent paperbacks that have the Lady and the Castle on all the covers ("darkhaven" by Dorothy Daniels; 1965)...it's really going downhill now, right? The reason is that I am moving and I don't have my stuff with me, it's all in storage in another state, and I needed a quick 2-day read & I like cheesy old lady & castle books, with ghosts of course!). LOL

I am Reading A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth. I just recently completed A Fine Balance, which was a beautiful story, but with a surprise ending.

Native Son by Richard Wright. I've read it a million times before, but every time I do something new jumps out at me. That's the beauty of a good book.
