You sure love Stephen King, man.
I recommend "Soldier Boys", I thought it was a great novel, it's by Dean Hughes.

[QUOTE=Zoidbear;23116856]'Cell' by Stephen King was pretty good.[/QUOTE]
Meh, didn't like it. He's been going progressively downhill for the past 10 years.

Good god man. I know King is great and all but he isn't THAT good. I only see 1 non King book at the very bottom. Speaking of Stephen King I recommend everyone to read [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dark_Tower_%28series%29"]The Dark Tower[/URL] series. Amazing story spanning 7 books and a few comics.

The Third Policeman. Prepare for major mindfuck.
I am thinking of continuing reading "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". I was halfway through it, and lost the page marker and I gave up.

The paperback books 1 and 7 I have with artwork are both signed by Stephen King.

By the way, that picture is about ten months old.
Lots more books now.

This book is amazing. I remember reading that in middle school.
This biography is also very good. I recommend reading it, especially if you're a Chili Peppers fan.

Seriously one of the best books I've read... At the least the one that was [i]never[/i] boring.

Reading this for the hell of it.
[QUOTE=creefer;23117482][I]The Giver[/I] by Lois Lowry is a good book. It has a really good theme dealing with the fondness and importance of memories. It's also got some interesting social commentary.
Here, from the [url=http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/giver/]Sparknotes article[/url] (spoilers in parts of the article, this part is safe);
Really worth a read. It's only about 120 pages and it's really interesting. Pick it up.[/QUOTE]
Great book. It really makes you think.

Do you know if theres an e-book version of that? I'm not a big fan of libraries.
Has anybody here read Frogmouth? It's a very good read. Apparently it's obscure, considering there are no images of it's cover.
[u]A Game of Thrones[/u] by George R.R. Martin, and [u]Lord Foul's Bane[/u] by Stephen Donaldson.
Let's all get hit by police cars now!
