Never noticed it had been locked - i'll kick off this one anyway - im reading 'The Winston Effect: The Art and History of Stan Winston Studio' - such a cool seeming guy, and what a body of work to leave behind

The Selfish Gene, it's really a remarkable book so far! What took me so long?

I'm struggling through "To Kill A Mockingbird" with minimal success, largely due to the lack of time/energy I can afford to give to reading.
It's been a while since a book fully caught my imagination. |

Ooh, I read that in class this year. It's tough as hell. I would not have enjoyed it had I read it on my own. There are some wonderful parts in the second half. |

i loved Graveyard Book but not the ending, so I'm hoping this will redeem it. |

Beware, for The Selfish Gene is known to be one of Jeffrey Skilling's favorite books. |

Five Stop Mother Superior![]() |
How do you like that one? That was one of my least favorites by him. It just didn't do anything for me. |

I agree... Survivor has to be my favorite by him. |
|||
|
Five Stop Mother Superior![]() |
Yeah Survivor was really good, so was Choke and Lullaby. Haunted sucked ass, as did a few others. He just tries to be gross for the sake of being gross. I have read all of his books except Snuff, which I refuse to read after reading what it is about. |

There is a God: How the World's Most Notorious Atheist Changed His Mind by Anthony Flew
I'll be honest, I never heard of Anthony Flew. I read the introduction to the book hoping to gain an understanding as to why he was so "notorious;" apparently he wrote a piece in the late 50s regarding atheism that was oft-quoted afterward. I never heard or read of him and this doc. Anyway, the book was a gift from my philosophy instructor. He mentioned how every now and then he'd have a student that would make him think about the world at large ina new way. Seems I was that student this year. Hence the gift. He's now in the Phillipines studying to become a priest. I look forward to his follow-up email, as we had many spirited conversations. |
