...so much for a stab at humor.....oh well.....there are other worlds than his....
That movie has haunted me, ever since childhood.
I've been reading a lot of "graphic novels" lately versus traditional novels, etc. I am not too fancy to call them comics. I've plowed through all of The Walking Dead and Y:The Last Man, and all of the Fables series to name a few. I've also read all of the currently top selling comic: Saga.
Anyway, that's what "books" I've been reading lately. I've actually been on a somewhat long hiatus from reading. I do that from time to time. I tend to churn and burn and read massive amounts and wear myself out. For example, I read Under the Dome in 3 days; 11/22/63 in 2. I have a pile of books that keeps getting larger. I'll get there.

Ah! Continuing Education - gotcha - have fun!
Mayhap you should file a lawsuit on Dana Carvey???
I finished Auntie Mame By P. Dennis. That was a wonderful story. I may read it again sometime. It put me in the mood for another coming of age story so I was going to read The Catcher in the Rye again, but I think I'll finnish Stinger by McCammon now. I stopped reading it about halfway through a few months back. It wasn't grabbing me, plus I got an itch to read Insomnia again.
So I'm going to give Stinger another shot. I never read a McCammon I didn't like. I don't want to start now.

I liked that Languth didn't stint on writing about less major players, like Samuel Adams. I haven't read that one in quite a few years, but I remember liking it quite a bit, and it's come through several major moves and is still on the shelf
I've never read anything written by Richard Russo, so I can't complain about his writing, but I will say I question his editing skills. I'm reading Best American Short Stories of 2010 and he picked 'em. Many of them are very lengthy. A couple of them have absolutely nothing to say. A few have been goodish. I'm ready to move on. I need to read Finders Keepers.
Read a couple H.G. Wells stories tonight, but that's about it. Feeling brain fried. I have a book sitting here called A Man Called Ove, by a Swedish author named Fredrik Backman. It looks like it might be funny, so I'll tackle that tomorrow, I think.
Thank you CYB.
Backman started his career as a blogger where he invented the character of Ove. A know it all middle aged white male that is rather socially incompetent (Ove that is, not Backman, the reaction here was that Ove was funnier in the blog format than as the lead in a novel). This novel is his try to make a novel of his blog character. Havent read it (the book) but thought you might like a little backstory
How interesting! Thank you! Our library had copies on the front desk, as Ove is this month's book club selection, and I picked one up on a whim
Library had a few books for me today, so I'll be trying to get through them before my next review is due. Tonight is for Frank Miller's Daredevil series. I've never read the Daredevil books, just encountered him in other heroes' books, so I thought starting out with Miller was a good idea. I'd forgotten about Black Widow's costume in the late 70s--lol. Looks a lot like Mystique a little later.

I'm playing video games these past few days after i finished Revival and The Knife and Gun Club
The reason why i shard it here is because i was holding a book right now while playing video game and that book was *drum roll* GTA V Strategy guide book (and the game was GTA V on my laptop)
