It appears as though we have similar tastes in books. I loved Hemingway in high school, there's something special about the way he used conversational Spanish in his stories.<a href="http://www.watsonian.net"><img src="http://www.watsonian.net/archives/cjpb6.gif" border="0"></a><a href="http://www.adultplatinum.com/wm.html?id=567353"><img src="http://www.watsonian.net/archives/adult_platinum_85x85_03.gif" border="0"></a>Comment

I love Hemingway. He was such a good one. I read a great biography of him by A. E. Hotchner called Papa Hemingway.
I just started getting into Heinlein. I loved The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. I run a Book of the Month Club on my site and that was the first book we read.
Right now I'm re-reading Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury.
And I'm about to start The Dharma Bums by Jack Kerouac.
How about you?Comment

currently reading " Killing Pablo" By Mark Bowden. It's about the rise and fall of Pablo Escobar.
Next up is " The Human Stain" by Phillip Roth
Anything by Dan Simmions especially "Summer of Night" or "Carrion Comfort" If you like horror/fantasy type stuff then you should check out Clive Barkers " Great and Secret Show" And it's sequal " Everville"
I just read " The Bottoms" By Joe Landsdale and loved it.
Also check out Nicholson Baker's " The Fermata" It's about a guy who learns that he can stop time and uses this power to live out his every sexual perversion
And of course if you only read 2 books in your life they should be " If I Die In a Combat Zone " And " The Things They Carried " By tim 'o brien
don't forget " Fight Club" Too.Comment
