What are you reading?

Since my last post I have read The Book of Breething by William S Burroughs (which is probably the most confusing thing I've ever read. I can't describe it.. it only takes like 30 minuets to read because a significant amount of it was a bunch of pictures of penises and men hunched over said penises and other weird things and then cryptic little seemingly unrelated side stories). Maybe it's brilliant, I have no idea. It was completely over my head. Except the first few pages about the word "is", I thought that was interesting. And the only thing about the book I really "got".

And I read Valparaiso which is a play by Don DeLillo. It was completely excellent. Anyone read anything by DeLillo? Any recommendations? I'm now in the middle of  his novel The Body Artist.  He has written a bunch and I'm going to read it all but  I dunno what to read next.

OH also, I read this uh.. "novel" called Snakes and Earrings. It was the worst freaking book I've ever read. (The Da Vinci Code MAY be worse, but even that I'm doubtful of).  It, like The Da Vinci Code, has won numerous awards and recieved acclaim all over the world. It's a best seller. It was.. um. Unbeleivably effin horrible. I'm dissapionted in people for liking this. It was translated from Japanese and I suspect a lot of the crappy writing was due to a bad translator. But even still, the plot is stupid. So, I like you all too much to recommend this thing to you, but if anyone wants to read the most ovverrated book in the history of ever (aside from DaVinci Code), go for it.

Also, Mosquitoperson... what did you think of The God Delusion? Just curiuos.

And Anstey, about The Lovely Bones.  read about half of that then got completely bored... a lot of my friends like it for some reason. But I remember thinking it was fairly poorly written. I'll have to give it another shot though. I'd be interested in what you think of it. 

So yes. I'm ranting. I'm also reading Brief Interviews with Hideous Men by David Foster Wallace which is thus far completely hilarious and awesome.

THE END.
