Another "What Are You Reeding Thread"?Nyckiskewl -
08-28-2005, 10:09 PM
Im just curious. Not trying to set the record for crap threads, but its nice to have these once in a while
Me:
Big Sur - Jack Kerouac
I havent read a book since June, so I though I should atleast pick this one up while at the library. On the Road was fucking amazing, that book made me cry in a gay brotherly love sense when the two guys departed. I love how nothing really happens in the books, yet it makes that seem like a whole lot b/c its all REAL, not some fiction made up to include a bunch of explosions and beautiful women. And Jack's a coo (cous) guy.
Im gonna try out that Da Vinci Code book next. I never have enough time to read, but Im finding myself with nothing to do a lot on the free weekends, as I've ridden my bike to the mall a bajillion times, and... Im getting carried away I guess. Im glad you just read that paragraph, though. Show's you care.
Post.

Yeah, but I've heard of so many people reading the Davinci code without the prequel, and still understanding the whole lot. Just some references, nothing you absolutely need to know to even turn another page into the book.
