yea think this a good one.
Admittedly I don't know loads about history of hip hop from inception, but this was a very interesting enlightening read on the subject.

Met David Sedaris last week and had him sign a copy of his new book When You Are Engulfed in Flames...

He did a funny little pictogram of a case then an e with a line over it to spell my name "Casey"... was a pretty interesting guy too.

Also reading Golden Compass - Pullman, Tale of Two Cities - Dickens and Invisible Monsters - Palahniuk...

Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho, and Hunter S Thompson's Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas.

The latter's getting the majority of my attention, however. Both awesome reads so far!

I just don't have patience to read... first because I only read before going to bed and then I get bored and sleepy lol

The only book that I really enjoyed reading was: The Nights Of The Long Knives from Hans Hellmut Kirst

I was reading JG Ballard - High Rise until I got to the end of page 48 and the next page was page 97! There are two sections of 97-144 in the book, annoying to say the least. Anyway either gonna get round to Catch 22 (which I have started a couple of times) or start Asimov's The Winds of Change.
