Just finished "The Black Angel"by John Connolly and have the next book "Nocturnes" waiting to start this evening. I'm working my way through his series and really like some of the thoughts on life and death that he throws out...the stories are good too. real thrillers.

"Revolutionary Road" by Richard Yates. It's good, but the last part is really depressing.

The tale of a vicious industry and how it helped destroy an emotionally vulnerable man. It's an interesting story, but a gruesome one.

"The Pyrates" by George MacDonald Fraser (he of Flashman.) It's good. Quite funny. Very idiosyncratic writing style. Bit Pynchonesque, only not s**t.
