Virus - This book is supposed to be a scary horror book but so far it's just gory and disgusting in some parts. Quite disappointing really. :lol:

Oh good. I thought I was the only one. Most people just use War and Peace as a joke...

No, I read it a couple of years ago. Well except for the last bit which isn't story but political polemics. But I really enjoyed it. :)

Just finished "Uncle Tungsten: memories of a chemical boyhood" by Oliver Sacks. It read pretty much like my autobiography.



I haven't read that one. I read "the man who mistook his wife for a hat", and "an anthropologist on Mars". I thought they were both good. I found "awakenings" a bit disappointing, to be honest.

Just finished reading "The Buddha Nature: Death and Eternal Soul in Buddhism", by the Dalai Lama. Very succinct explanation of how mind is thought to exist.

Just started "Asperger Syndrome & Employment: Adults Speak Out about AS". A collection of articles written by Aspies on work. So far I'm enjoying it.

Finished "The Boy Lama" and now I'm on to "The Fundamental Potential for Enlightenment" by Geshe Acharya Thubten Loden, a fairly readable (so far anyway) text on buddha nature.

I've also started "Seed to Harvest" by Octavia E. Butler for my fantasy hit.
