i can't think of more at the moment but i'll try abit later i do have more

Sounds like you read stupid books. Do they inspire your poetry?

The Zombie Survival Guide - Max Brooks
As I Lay Dying - William Faulkner

The Darkest Depths Of My Tortured Soul by Kevin Davis is also pretty cool.

no they don't and acually they are all good books, my song for the most part are horrible, cause with out my friend i can't write songs, but i acually write good poetry , but i never post it cause it has no beat

the title sounds good. so does as i lay dying. i think i will be wasting my pay check at borders, tomorrow :D

If youre a democrat (and even if youre not i suppose) Al Franken has some funny books out.

I was joking about that last one.

and As I Lay Dying is really good.

*dumbass* i thought twice but then i trusted in you.

mine are all real books

i love anne rice, but some of the other are those i read when i was abit younger, good read but only a hand full are not young adult level, as in they are abouve teen but not for those who are thirty something... that how they explined it some at the libray becaue the teen section is in the childrens section....

oh sorry for ranting.....

everything is illuminated by jonathan safran foer
the curious incident of the dog in the night time - mark haddon
the ginger man by j.p. donleavy

Marquis de Sade's "120 Days of Sodom"

He wrote it while imprisioned at Bastille I believe. Its just so descriptive........borderlines disturbing.

do you like umm like fanfiction of favorite shows or such??

A gracious plenty - sheri reynolds

That's one of my favorite books.

ROFL. I never thought I would see anyone recommend The Marquis to anyone, good show. Do not read that, btw. It's just descriptions of highly unusual sexual acts - written back in the 1800's though, so it's pretty high brow (lol).

As I Lay Dying? A little bit dry for me, have to be in the mood for some serious Faulkner.

Read Demian. Hermann ****ing Hesse for the win!

Read Killing Yourself to Live. Lovely book by old Chuck Klosterman, author of Sex, Drugs and Cocoa Puffs... also a good read.

yea that book is cool, i was expecting someone to suggest a palahniuk book, though if you want a ''sick and twisted'' book read 'haunted'- also by chuck palahniuk. made some people throw up, im reading it at the moment, pretty awesome.

^I really need to read that onee.

It is kind of boring..aha on second thought you might not wanna check that one out spike.

You'd probaly really like A Winter Haunting (I mentioned it early), its a mindfuck. Its not one of my favorites but its still pretty sweet. It messes with your head quite a bit.

Dude, As I Lay Dying was one of the best books I've ever read.

Disgrace, by J.M. Coetze. There's something extremely blunt about the way he writes that keeps me reading and reading, when normally I have a very poor attention span for literature. I've started hundreds of books and finished very few but that was one I couldn't stop reading.

A Fine Balance, Rohinton Mistry. Read a lot of books when I had very little else to do while on trains or laying around in the evenings a couple of years ago. This was by far the best. It might not make as much sense if you haven't been to India, but it probably will.

Porno - Irvine Welsh (same dude that wrote trainspotting)

^I agree. Read some porno.

That one's boring! Oscar Wilde said some brilliant things in his time and was a genius in many ways, but this one's just dreary.

Behold...the greatest book ever written.

The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks.

Read it before you die.

Is that some kind of warning?

hehe ^

It's a must read, easily the best book I have ever read.

Wasp factory. Ok, will look for it.

It not so much literature..but good to read..

Behold a Pale Horse..by William Cooper..
