Just finished re-reading the Bourn Identity. God but did they not do that book justice in the movie in anyway shape or form. Still boggles my mind.

Almost NO movie ever does justice to the book on which it was based. That's one of the reasons why people still read books (thank God!). :applause:

No doubt. For me that one movie is I Am Legend. I get shouted down every time I bring it up, but I just didn't enjoy the book that much.

It's too early for heavy reading.

I recently finished up "The Post-American World." It was alright, but the author seems to get lost from the point he was trying to establish often.

Now I'm reading "To Try Men's Souls" about Washington and the revolution.

The Dresden Files:Grave Peril. The books are great but the TV show sucked!

Well, it was book madness for me today, could have gone on for hours, but my grandmas knee was hurting her already...

I bought:
* Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen (hard cover =) )
* A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess
* American Gods by Neil Gaiman
* Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman

I had to put down another book from Neil G. and Dostoievsky
