Nice! How is it? I am still plodding through The Witching Hour by Ann Rice in my homage to NOLA. Ironically the creepiest, darkest part of the book was the part I got to on Halloween! When I'm done (I'm on page 650 of about 1000) I'm going to read the Tori Amos bio. Then Al's book, most likely! That or Mary Leader's Triad since I just got a used copy of that through Amazon.

It's really funny, I like it. I'm only about 50 pages into it, though.

ooh - my fave book by Anne.

Triad is a good book too. I read it about 3 years ago. It's not, to me, a very well-written book, but a good, easy read.

I really, really want to read the Tori Amos book too.

You didn't? That's one of my favorite books. Though I hated it initially when forced to read it in school because of "The Custom House."

In the last two days I read The Committment by Dan Savage. It was amusing, but not as funny as his others. It also made me think a lot about my opinions on gay marriage. Thought provoking.
