Weather'.

I've got a couple more on the go as well- I just haven't
looked at them in over a month. I have around 7 books on the
go at once- usually all different subject matter, that way
there is something to read for any particular mood I'm in. I
also like to have a few unopened DVDs of films/series I've
not seen on my shelf so when I feel like watching something
I have something new to hand.

just finished a book called Hide and Seek, cant remember the
name of the author but its about a boy whose younger brother
goes missing. very well written and a little heart breaking
to say the least.

i am currently reading, after many months of putting it off
because so many dickheads recommended it to me, The Dice Man
by Luke Reinheart and its actually alright so far!

Me either, and I remember feeling so excited when I heard
about it. I guess the gap between hearing about and its
eventual (seemingly low-key) release was so long that my
excitement deflated.

its crazy the way they animated it. they actually took every
frame and sort of drew over them with color, its realy cool,
but its hard to explain. they tell you everything in the
DVDs special features.

I was just given a book of stories by Jorge Luis Borges and
I have no idea what to expect. The unexpected maybe?

Also, I finally got my bloody claws on "The Idiot." If it's
anything like Dostoevsky's other books, I'm sure it will be
greed!

I work with several Latvians, and one of them, upon
returning from a sojourn in his native land, presented me
with The Idiot, in Russian, as a gift. Very nice!
