Sometimes sitting at home reading is how I roll

I read.

I like to read.

I have nothing to read right now.

please help.

You work at a bookstore. You are surrounded by books.

My favourite is Truman Capote's 'Breakfast at Tiffany's.'

Sometimes sitting at home reading not reading is how I roll.

I work there, finding time to read and finding something to read is the key.

I'm going to read Gaiman's new one when it comes out, but I need some non-fiction.

I've been addicted to biographies lately.

I could use something new to read as well... I've been re-reading the same stuff for too long now.

if you want non-fiction i'd reccomend any of the 3 books chuck klosterman has written. which are: fargo rock city, sex drugs and cocoa puffs and killing yourself to live.

Dune is an intresting book

Jane Austen Dude!!!!!

Oh wait you are a Dude, how about some nice Tolkien?

There are some good suggestions here.

There's 3 volumes out, and they're amusing reads. Plus, you can always just read a few, laugh, and put it away for another day.

I'm one of those guys who always spurts out weird and useless knowledge. These are my bibles.

Any thing by Laurell K Hamilton is a great read and the Necromacer series by Brian Lumley is damn good too.

Seconded.

Right there.

I just started reading sex drugs and cocoa puffs. Highly reccomend it. "Laugh out loud funny!!"--Me

ok honestly i love that phrase THATS HOW I ROLL, ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT sry i just had to say that

i've been re-reading kitchen confidential. that's a good one.

i'm a bookworm.

augusten boroughs...running with scissors. then read dry.

I'm a poetry and non-fiction buff. Old poetry, Longfellow, Poe, Milton, the poetic language of Synge. Right now I'm reading "Conspiracy of Fools" about the Enron fuck-up, I love stuff like that, Watergate, politics in general, I'm doomed to forever be a geek, but at least I'm fucking hot!

If you're into strange and interesting biographies, I'd recommend Like A Fiery Elephant: The Story Of B. S. Johnson by Jonathan Coe or I Am Alive and You Are Dead: A Journey into the Mind of Philip K. Dick by Emmanuel Carrere. The first, a pricey hardback, will be somewhat harder to find, but worthwhile. The second is out in paper, just released, and should be easy. (You don't have to be familiar with or like either of the writers to enjoy these books that they are the subjects of.) There's also The Bradbury Chronicles: The Life of Ray Bradbury by Sam Weller, who got unprecedented access to the man and his papers. Somehow the book has been widely overlooked, which is sad.

I'm also re-reading the first volume of Hunter S. Thompson's letters. This from one in 1965: "I don't claim to be invulnerable, but the one thing I insist on is that I can't be croaked except when I give the word."

Twain's "Innocents Abroad" is an excellent read.



Twain traveling through Europe and the holy land with a group of religious pilgrims. Funny, thought provoking stuff.
