Steve Martin would write a funny book.

I am the only one of my kind. An oddity; unique. An abberation. Do you know what it's like? To be utterly alone? So alone...Is it any wonder I scream with rage and sorrow?

I just finished reading "Into the Wild" a book I didn't expect to like, but ended up falling in love with.

I am reading a lot of books. I mean I start them want to finish them but get distracted and start reading others.
At the moment I just started reading Shopaholic & Baby
I'm in the middle of Conspiracy of Paper, Pursuasion, The Chronicles of Narnia series and the Count of Monte Cristo.

Bored out of my mind.

I just finished the Necroscope, which is an interesting book about a guy who can talk to the dead and use their abilities himself... it's a bit weird, but good.

I also just finished reading Deep Storm by Lincoln Child. It's pretty interesting- it's about an underwater government project where they've supposedly made the discovery of all time. But when people start getting sick, they call in Doctor Crane to figure out what's causing the illness. It's pretty good, especially if you like political intrigue and medical thrillers.

He actually wrote his biography (auto-biography? I can never keep the two straight), the excerpts I've read are quite entertaining and we are ordering the book at some point in the near future. I might actually even make time to read it.
