So what are you guys reading and how much recently? I go through about 2 or 3 novels in a month, much more sometimes and much less. I am currently reading Mote in God's Eye by Larry Niven (he wrote Ringworld), and I just finished Cat's Craddle by Kurt Vohnagut, Earth Abides by George Stewart, and Ilium by Dan Simmons.

I love that book called "watch your fucking language" it's about unknown swear words or how to do it effectively and I learned a bunch of shit like "peel the eel" from it or having sex is considred "making the beast with two backs".(

The Giver is good. It's a really easy read so you'd probably finish it in a day or two.

actually the DR Suess books kick ass, like the Lorax was about coperate america destrying wildlife. Dr Suess is a genious because he can brainwash kids be aware of the man, before the man brainwashes them into befriending him.

On the Road is one of my favorite books along with Catcher in the Rye. I am currently reading Sex, Drugs, and Cocoapuffs by Chuck Klosterman (senior writer for SPIN) which is hilarious. I will then be starting either The Dante Club or Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintennance. Another great book is The Monkey Wrench Gang

Yeah I've been on a Chuck Pahlaniuk phase lately, I read Choke awhile back, just finished Fight Club, and now am reading Survivor. His books are so good, highly reccomended. I'm gonna have to go with along with a couple others though and say Catcher in the Rye is my favorite, it's such an amazing book.
