Shutter Island-Dennis Lehane

Glamorama by Bret Easton Ellis.

Not sure I like it, but I'm not far into it at all. Seems kind of vapid and the characters are annoying and shrill. Probably supposed to be that way, but I hope it turns into something interesting soon.

A letter from Aldous Huxley to George Orwell critiquing his newly-published 1984.

Indeed! I've a wonderful collection of 20th-century dystopian classics. I've a penchant for 60s and early 70s mass market Del Reys, Bantams, and Ballantine books. Love that cover artwork!

I have so many books from those publishers cause I read all the ****ty Star Wars novels that got released in the late 90s-early 00s. Those were the worst books ever written but I loved... certain ones... god were some of them atrocious though.

Which ones sir?


I went through the X-Wing series which was awesome but I didn't bother with Jedi Academy. I was thinking about it but didn't really go through them.

I also read one of the bounty hunter books, can't recall what they called that series.

Sorry you had to suffer through those. Most of those books are at least hackwork, but those ones are more valuable as blank paper.
