I brought Trainspotting with me on the plane but quickly realized it is written in an accent. I really liked the movie buit I just can't see myself reading a whole book like that so while waiting for my connecting flight I bought Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman.
I almost bought You Suck by Charlie Moore, has anyone read it? any good?
Today my husband got me my vacation reading- Captain Blood by Rafael Sabatini and Silence by Shusaku Endo.
LOL - anticipating driving 11 hours by myself with my kiddos and then having to stay at my *gulp* parents' house--those titles become kinda funny :D
Thanks for the suggestion, Antiquarian - it seems I can't get it through Amazon.co.uk, only through Amazon.com, priced in dollars, so I'm not sure if my credit will pay for it.Quote:

Luncheon Of The Boating Party by Susan Vreeland, an interesting (at least, I hope so) novel about the famous painting of Renoir.
Catch-22 by Joseph Heller.
I decided to get it since I've read many positive reviews of it from this forum.
American Sea Writing - A Literary Anthology, pub by Library of America. Just found it onsale and bought it at the LOA website. Beautifully made book. Sixty-eight entries, 671 pages.
Three Cups of Tea. Looked like an interesting story so I picked it up as a spur of the moment deal.
I was digging around a seedy used book store and found The Financier by Theodore Dreiser and Three Soldiers by John Dos Passos.
I bought the following ebooks yesterday for my Kindle:
"The Thief's Journal" by Jean Genet
"Our Lady of the Flowers" by Jean Genet
"120 Days of Sodom" by Marquis de Sade
Great Finds!:thumbs_up Two of my favorite authors!Quote:

I just bought Armageddon in Retrospect, a collection of 12 never before published writings by Kurt Vonnegut. I've only flipped through it so far, but I will begin actually reading it after work today. I'll let you all know what I think about it when I'm finished.
