I also love 'Running With Scissors' and 'Dry' by Augusten Burroughs. You need to read them ion that order, though. They are about his life and they are so well written... ahh he is an amazing writer. I've just read a fiction novel of his called 'Sellevision' which is hilarious.
Both 'The Curious Incident...' and 'Running With Scissors' are meant to be coming out as films this year. I can't fucking wait!
Other books I highly recommend are 'A Crack In Forever' by Jeannie Brewer which is quite an easy read, but made me cry. Which takes a lot. And I loved The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks.
The Louise Rennison books about Georgia Nicolson are bloody fantastic. I still read them sometimes for a giggle even if I am a bit too old for them! When I started reading them and I was still at school, I could relate to Georgia perfectly... me and my best mate still tell each other that we 'lobe' each other.
I love both of those books. Prefered 'Running with Scissors' though. Not read 'Dry' yet. It is on my wish list
I didn't realise that both of these books were being made into films. Can't wait for that. They will be really good methinks.
Ooooh! I prefered 'Dry' a little more than 'Running With Scissors' - although they are both amazing, and you need to read 'RWS' to understand 'Dry'.
Saying that though, my mate like 'RWS' more, so you never know. Burroughs is an amazing writer, I think.
:yes: hehe me too I love these books! They actually make me LOL hehehe
Also, Tim Burton's poem book - The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy : and Other Stories - Very dark, quite funny.
What that people actually bother reading autobiographies regardless of who they're written by?
Sorry I have something against autobiographies. Without doubt the worst form of literature ever conceived by man or beast.
Read Dante's Divine Comedy the other day. That was pretty good. Re-reading Great Expectations as I fucking love it.
I just finished reading The Big Sky by A. B Guthrie for the second time, and would recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone with even a passing interest in Western fiction. Just a fantastic story telling of the real wild, primitive West and [to cut it right down to barest bones] freedom. I love it.
