Right now I'm reading Watership Down. Strange, it's just about rabbits, but it's very engrossing. I'm not sure if there is a deepeer meaning to it (probably, but don't care).

My brother read that last month.
 
I finished After Dark. Pretty good, if not surreal book. It left me with a lot of questions.

I'm reading two books right now. Dark Hope is my subway/in transit book. It's written by an Israeli peace activist and it details his work in the Israeli-Palestinian peace movement. It's very well written and tells a side of the story that is definitely not told in mainstream media.

My before bedtime book is Stardust by Neil Gaiman. I am so excited to get into this. I got the illustrated edition and the art looks :up:
 
Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass.
 
I loved my zombie survival guide. I considered buying World War Z, but wasn't sure it would keep my attention or be worth the money.

Its worth it I think. To me personally, there were a few dull points, but [this might sound bad], once the interviewee describes a zombie attack, it picks up again.
 
Dune: The Butlerian Jihad

It was alright but not as good as the original Dune series.
 
Watchmen, heard there was a movie out. You guys know anything about this? =p
 
I finished Stardust. Holy crap it was good. Anyone know where you can buy prints of the artwork? I adored some of the stuff.
 
The Dream Quest Of Unknown Kadath and other stories of the oniric Randolph Carter Cycle, by master of horror H.P. Lovecraft (tho this is a beautiful fantasy book)

currently reading El Maestro y las Magas by Alejandro Jodorowsky
 
I finished The Picture of Dorian Gray last night. What a fantastic book! I can't wait for the film to be released later this year!!

Stardust by Neil Gaiman? I've not read the book but I enjoyed the film very much. I am reading Gaiman's The Graveyard Book at the moment and so far so good. I love his Coraline as well. Not seen the film yet though.

The very same. I haven't seen the movie yet though I want to now. And Coraline was so good, you should definitely check it out when you get a chance!

I'm going to look for Stardust, the book, later today. :up: I definitely want to see Coraline. I don't think it's been shown where I am at yet. Did you read Coraline? If you did, are you satisfied with the screen adaptation.

Finished: The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. :up:
 
I read Coraline but did not see the film. I did however watch a bunch of clips of it over at traileraddict and some some behind the scenes voiceover work and out of all the clips I saw I didn't recognize one single thing from the book. This is not to say the film isn't faithful though :)

I haven't yet but I plan to order it as soon as I have some funds. I've heard that people thought it wasn't faithful to the book, but in all fairness it was blessed by Gaiman itself and the visuals are positively stunning.

When you buy Stardust, make sure you get the Vertigo illustrated edition. Half the charm is the beautiful illustrations.

I think that's the important part there.

This version?
http://www.amazon.com/Stardust-Roma...=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1237254455&sr=1-2
 
^That's the one. The American version has a different cover than mine though :S
 
I am currently reading "The Chris Farley Show".

If your a fan of his or if you want insight into a comics/actors mind, then pick this up. It has some real great stories both funny and touching.
 
Twilight: New Moon

and i'm currently reading american psycho
 
I want to read American Psycho, however, not looking forward to the part where

he cuts the woman's nipple off with a pair of scissors, or so people have told me :dry:
