The Brooklyn Follies, by Paul Auster. Funny and heartbreaking at the same time. Read it on the plane ride home and loved every second of it - one of those books that you're sad to see end - though I admit that part of the reason I loved it so much is because it took place in the neighborhood I grew up in - hell, the front cover pic was taken a block away from my elementary school (which is why I noticed the book in the first place) - reading it was like visiting home - every place, school, restaurant, etc. he mentioned, I have been to and have warm memories of. Auster clearly loves Brooklyn as much as I do, so it was kinda like reading something from an old friend.
Still, you don't need to know Brooklyn to enjoy this - great characters and moving without being sappy. Auster has an acerbic sense of humor. Good, fast read.
 Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi

I've been plowing through the Hard Case Crime novels and F. Paul Wilson's Repairman Jack novels. I just finished The Haunted Air, but I'm gonna take a break from Jack and read Caleb Carr's The Italian Secretary.

Have recently finished "Beyond the Blue Event Horizon" by Frederik Pohl and "The Time Machine" by H.G. Wells.
Have begun "Heechee Rendezvous" by Pohl and "Star Maker" by Olaf Stapledon.
Will, among other books, read "Sandman" vol 3-8 by Neil Gaiman.
"Batman is only meaningful as an answer to a world which in its basics is chaotic and in the hands of the wrong people, where no justice can be found. I think it's very suitable to our perception of the world's condition today... Batman embodies the will to resist evil" -Frank Miller
"Conan, what's the meaning of life?"
"To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their women!"
-Conan the Barbarian
"Well, yeah."
-Jason E. Perkins
"If I had a dime for every time Pariah was right about something I'd owe twenty cents."
-Ultimate Jaburg53
"Fair enough. I defer to your expertise."
-Prometheus

Just finished the (new) Tolkien book, The Children of Hurin.
The first chapter was complete hell. See, I liked The Hobbit except for all the hobbits and dwarves. Just not a fan of the little people. And I liked Lord of the Rings, but that is not bathroom reading. You know that chapter with the concil of Elrond, and all those elven princes they mentioned? I read the first few pages over and over again because I thought all the characters were important. And which elves were important? Elrond and Legolas.
The first chapter does open up with Hurin's massive family tree, and I ended up drawing a diagram to make sense of it all. (Here's a hint -- Christopher Tolkien must have known I was going to read this, because he stuck a family tree in the back, which also connected Hurin to Elrond. I, not being a Middle-Earth buff, did not link the two together.)
Anyways, after the introduction, I actually found the book to be quite interesting. At around 350 pages, it wasn't as long as The Lord of the Rings but was much more mature than The Hobbit. Plus, there's only one dwarf (who meets a bad end) and no hobbits. Just elves, men, and one badass wingless dragon.
The story actually ends sadly, and if I wasn't in the office, I probably would have started to cry. It was...epic...like I was reading Oedipus or Beawolf. The story is basically how Hurin fought Morgoth (who was the bad guy before that non-blinking eye in Lord of the Rings). Morgoth captured Hurin and cursed his entire family, then forced Hurin to watch said family fall apart. And while his son Turin is an asshole, even to his friends, you can sort of tell when things could have turned out right for him.
All in all, best thing by Tolkien I've read. Dear Peter Jackson, have a new idea for you...

finished over the weekend. A must for anyone interested in the early days of the medium and how things came together. it answered a lot of question I'd had (like how DC's characters went from the wild, often ruthless, sometimes pranksterish, pulp like characters of the early years to the watered down, almost neutered, boy scouts of the late forties and fifties. Here's a hint: it was a deliberate move on the publisher's part and it was a rigid moral code set in place that prefigured the later comics code).
it's also a nice companion piece to Chabon's Kavalier & Clay.

I'm in the early goings of Caleb Carr's The Italian Secretary. I enjoyed The Alienist and Angel Of Darkness, so I'm looking forward to his entry in the Sherlock Holmes mythos.

The Alienist is one of the books my dad recommended to me. I approach it with caution (my dad reads James Michener, fer crissakes), but immediately got into and and blazed through it.

Yes I know. Okay, I like the wizard and I liked the dragon. So sue me. I like the pointy hat look, and I can associate with Smaug more than any other Tolkien creature. Something about the way he loves his gold...
I will say I appriciate the hobbits inventing the phrase 'second breakfast'. Bless them and their hairy feet.
Quote:

I have no clue. For some reason though, I want Christopher Lee to be the voice of Smaug. I think that would rock. Or the voice of the dragon in Hurin. It's just the right length for a movie adaptation, but it is very dark compared to The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, so I don't know how people would take it. I mean nothing happy happened in the book. It was like watching Oedipus Rex -- you just want to warn the guy of his doom.
One other good thing about the book -- despite the jumble of family names, I didn't get confused like I did with the big elf book. I was getting Sauron and Saurmon mixed throughout the first two books. I was under the impression that the good guys were fighting one giant eye...with wizard powers. Wasn't until I saw the movie that any of it made any sense.

Just finished I Love You, Beth Cooper by Larry Doyle. It's being compared to American Graffitti and ... Dazed and Confused  No matter. Fucking hysterical. I knew I had to buy it when I started laughing out loud in B&N while reading the first few pages. Totally fun book. Go read it.
Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi

I read Neil Gaiman's Stardust on Sunday, good fairy tale book.
I now have American Gods and plan to read it this weekend.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but I recently read I Hope They Have Beer In Hell by Tucker Max.
Without question, the funniest book I've ever read.
Highly recco'd.
Oderint, dum metuant.
You are a god damned idiot, you know that? You ought to be smacked upside your dumb-fuck head, even after all these years. Shame on you! -USCHI showin' some love

I think you just found Grimm's epitaph.
