I beg to differ - it is summer reading, but morons wouldn't catch the subtleties of DeMille's stories. I've only read one of Friedman's books (The Mile High Club, bought it at the duty free in Heathrow and finished it on the flight home), entertaining with nice twists, but Friedman is no DeMille.

Nelson DeMille's Gold Coast: beats the crap out of Arpi's fag reading material.

Finished Skinny Legs last night and was surprised at how much I had forgotten about it. Definitely one of Robbins best books although it seemed like he rushed through the last part of the book just to finish it. He doesn't tie it up neatly.
Brought Notes From The Underground to work with me today, but I have to get back to painting. Try to start it during lunch. :12:

Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates was the newest as far as I knew, but that was like a year ago. Is that the one?

Villa Incognito is the new one. The Amazon reviews all say it's kind of blah. :12:

So I never started Notes From The Underground, but I am finally reading Another Roadside Attraction. Brought it with me to VT this weekend.
I brought home my special lady friend's copy of Empire Falls by Robert(?) Russo. She was raving about it, but I've never heard of it. Anyone read it?

I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.

i had to read sections of The Brothers Karamazov for my existentialism class. I liked it, so now i'm reading it cover to cover.

Guns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond. It's a pretty decent read, does kind of drag in some parts so far though.
