I don't care about the subtitle - what's horrible about the book?

Well I finished "High Fidelity" and I really liked it. Now reading

It is one of those type of books that everyone should read once but you really don't reread again. Fantastic book.

In preparation for Alice in Sunderland, I've just read Alice in Wonderland and found it quite charming...(:

I got this in the mail today from Amazon. Grimm is one of my top 5 favourite MC's and when I found out there was a comic book he wrote on his life I immediately went looking for it. I was a little surprised that he didn't once mention his 2000 album The Downfall of Ibilys: A Ghetto Opera which he recorded in 1 day while out on bail before serving 3 years in prison, but oh well. I also think the artwork could've used some colouring but now I'm just getting nitpicky, bottom line is it's a great read on one of the most intelligent and underrated hip hop artists in our time.

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho for some reason. Not as great as it was made out to me that it was, but I've just started.

Voltaire in his Letters, being a Selection from His Correspondence

he is absolutely fascinating to read. Two hours reading him feels like ten minutes. It's absolutely wonderful.

^ I felt Candide was the best of his works, I read others ... they're not better.
