| Psychopath Registered: Aug. 01  | quote: I think it makes a difference in how the story is read and who reads the story when it comes to books on tape. I listened to a Patricia Cornwell novel and I couldn't stand the "voice" the reader did for one of the main male characters. It drove me so completely crazy that I couldn't concentrate on the story. I listened to a Stephen King book on tape and he did the reading himself. It was awesome if you enjoy like his work. However, do not listen to one of his novels while driving alone after dark. Very creepy...  Thanks, Barch for my hat! :) | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Aug. 00 | Sounds interesting, Kindred. Give me a name of a scary Stephen King novel to listen to after dark while in the car. I wonder how creepy it can be.

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | quote: Both actually. He served in the Pacific during 1942 and led a division on Guadalcanal. Then he transferred to the ETO and led the VII Corps under Bradley who was the American Ground Commander. He later served as Army Chief of Staff throughout Korea, and was involved in the firing of General MacArthur. The story was interesting, but he spent more time reciting history than giving his own personal accounts. It's a quick read though.  I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray... That someday it may raise me... above these badlands | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | I just finished reading "The Dirt", Motley Crue's autobiography. I'm not a big Crue fan, but after they were on the show, I decided to read it. Good read. They were pretty honest, and it gives a little insight into how screwed up they were.  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Nov. 00 | Domain by Steve Alten Takes the Myan Doomsday Calendar, the Great Pyramids, etc. and combines them into a really good conspiracy story that makes the X-Files look like Teletubbies. Worth the read.  "We are not contractually tied down to reality; there is no sanity clause.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Well I finished The Beginning and the End by Mahfouz, and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be....the ending made the book well worth reading. Now I am reading Warriors and the Prophet: The Struggle for Islam by Mark Huband for my Middle Eastern History class...its pretty interesting so far.  I was hoping I was hoping we could heal each other I was hoping I was hoping we could be raw together USA | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | Arthur, if you liked that book, I'd definitely recommend Fingerprints of the Gods by Graham Hancock....about the similarities between Egyptian and South/Latin American civilizations, that there was an even older, more advanced culture that taught them everything...etc. lots of detail. Amazing, eye-opening book! You can unlock any door, if you only have the key. NEVER FORGET!!! | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | I'm currently reading Isle of Dogs by Patricia Cornwell. I don't like it all tht much, she's trying to be carl Hiaasen and it aint working. MY next book will be Last Man Standing by David Baldacci, hope it doesn't suck as much as his last book did. Hopefully, that'll take me into January when I can pick up Up Country by Nelson Demille, best writer to come out of Long Island and then The Summons by John Grisham. His last book sucked too. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 01 | I just got "The Dirt" - Motley Crue's Book. Can't wait to get into this book. Over the summer i read If Chins Could Kill, Bruce Campbell's autobiography (campbell is god) & Antichrist Superstar, Marilyn Manson's autobiography. as soon as i graduated college in may i needed to clear my mind of all things educational. but i think i locked the door & lost the key cause i picked up Dante's Inferno right after reading about manson & i couldn't even get 4 pages into it before tossing it onto my bookshelf where it sits & collects dust. damn sig.  | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | Just finished "One Door Away from Heaven" by Dean Koontz. Considering it took me almost a month to read, I guess it wasn't very good. I tried so hard and got so far, but in the end it doesn't even matter | ||||
