I like to think I'm smart so I read...but not that much...

11/15/05 Here I am Again…and cuz Louis did one like this

Before I forget- I’m reading Greg Rucka’s newest Queen and Country Novel (PRIVATE WARS) right now…slowly I might add- one chapter a night- it’s one of those stories that would read great serialized…it’s also in that genre that I’ve recently come to enjoy: the (slightly more) realistic spy genre. Mostly because I’ve come to really love 24 (my now fave show) as well as Alias (more fantastic), MI-5 (AKA Spooks) and La Femme Nikita (despite the sucky first season)…

Other Books I’m currently reading (very Slowly):

The Complete Hitchhiker’s Guide by Douglas Adams ( I sped read the first two and a half books a while back…then stopped because I overloaded on Douglas Adams- getting back into it- mostly due to the better than expected movie)

Star Trek: Federation by the Reeves Couple: Yes, I’m a Trekkie…this book is an anomaly now due to changes they made in the official timelines…but I’m hoping to ignore that and still enjoy the book…plus it’s cool to see the cast/s in my head in this imaginary story

All the different Mirrormask Books: Because I have yet to see the movie, because I’m a Neil Gaiman/Dave McKean freak and because Anansi Boys took me a week to finish and I wanted more…

Bubba Ho Tep by Joe R. Lansdale: Dude, I loved the movie…

One book I eventually want to read: JOURNEY TO THE WEST- I kinda know the story, but I still want to actually read it (not sure if I’ll get the 4-volume version or the abridged one)…

Still wishing there was a Trade Winds Book store here in Austin…
