Lovebug

Uncle by J.P. Martin

Back in print courtesy of the New York Review of Books. Beyond any shadow of a doubt, the finest and funniest psychological study of a pompous but kind-hearted billionaire elephant in the history of English literature.

I'm reading Dune, again :D .
Not quite surprising, given my current screen name, is it?
Well, it is a good read ;) !

I'm currently reading Joanne Fluke's Candy Cane Murder.

The books are part of a series of murder mysteries that take place in a small town. There are also recipes from "The Cookie Jar" the main characters bakery featured in each book. I recommend this series to anyone who loves mysteries or just some good deserts.

Witches Abroad by Terry Pratchett



Remember when it rained.
I felt the ground and looked up high
And called your name.
Ohhhhhh Remember when it rained.
In the darkness I remain.

That's next up for me. I was given it as a gift and everyone says the same thing you did about it. I can't wait to begin.

Right now I'm reading Sandman by Neil Gaiman. Book 1.
Suppose the neutral angels were able to talk Yahweh and Lucifer- God and Satan, into settling out of court. Specifically, how would they divide the assets of their earthly kingdom? Would God be satisfied to take loaves and fishes .. allowing Satan the red-eye gravy, eighteen ounce New York steak, and buckets of chilled champagne? Would God really accept twice-a-month lovemaking for procreative purposes and give Satan the all-night, no-holds-barred, nasty "can't-get-enough-of-you," hot as hell fucks? Well? Would he?

The Red Dahlia by Lynda LaPlante
To go in the dark with a light is to know the light.
To know the dark, go dark. Go without sight,
and find that the dark, too, blooms and sings,
and is traveled by dark feet and dark wings.

"I, Vampire" by Michael Romkey

Highly recommended. It was writen back in 1990 before the now popular tween-twist of vampires hit. :)

For anyone who remembers Ravenloft, you should check out I, Strahd. The title is a blatant rip-off of the aforementioned book, but it's still pretty good reading. At least it was four or five years ago when I read it.
