I'm pretty down with Dean Koontz novels right know, Odd Thomas.

LOVE that series. One of my favourite characters, by far!

I don't think I know enough Scottish things to know whether I get them or not. I know Bonnie Banks O' Loch Lomond. I know what's in a Scotch egg ... but those are British. So.

Examples? :D

Well Bonnie Banks O' Loch Lomond mightn't mean much to the average guy. But here it's played at the end of the night, at say an 18th, 21st, any kind of big celebration really. And the way things are with football, people don't really get what it's like to stay in my area (hamilton-ish way (football rivalry is different everywhere)) it's difficult to describe. I'm going to think of a few examples over time.

Well I have read Godel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid before starting my college and I have decided that I wanted to major in "Godel Escher Bach". The important thing is to understand about working at right out of college. Well it covers almost topics and it helped me a lot in choosing courses.

Didn't find a thread for favourite plays so I'll just post it here: The Importance of Being Earnest.

As for actual book, Catch-22.

Oh my gosh! Finally someone else has listed Go Ask Alice as their favorite book! Ever since I read it, years ago, I have always said that is my favorite book! Regardless of the numerous good books I read and love, that one always sticks out in my mind! I think it is an amazing story.
As for recent books that I have read and love, I would say The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and Little Bee were up there with some amazing reads. Both very different plots than a lot of the typical storylines you get. I have yet to finish the Dragon Tattoo series, but I definitely want to read the other two after finishing the first one!

Starmaker by Olaf Stapledon.

Wow. Expanded my mind, man. I'm serious. Really makes you look at the bigger picture.

You know that Go Ask Alice is fake, right?

Nobodies posted her for a while so I doubt if this thread is particular active still, but I'll post anyway.

My favourite books are The Godfather - Mario Puzo, and The Bourne Trilogy by Robert Ludlum. I really like allot of Ludlum's thrillers, but I find that I can't read them back to back, because there all a bit similar. But still there excellent in phases.
