I've had to read Beloved. I didn't really like it that much, but I really love the way it's written. And it is, inherently, extremely depressing, just because of the story. The thing I remember most about that book is the cow fucking part. I don't know what that says about me.

ultimate spiderman  i also reread 'the red badge of courage.' i read two versions of it. the longer one is better. i'm running out of books that hold my interest. i started to read 'beloved' but it was too obtuse and depressing for me at the time. |

I've reverted back to my childhood and have been reading a lot of Stephen King. "The Talisman", "Night Shift", "The Dark Half", et al. Um, anything by Andrew Vachss, Eugene Izzi, Michael Crichton. I also just finished a book by Shane Stevens, "By Reason Of Insanity". That was pretty good. |

| Generator86 | I know that ultimately he seems to be writing to children, but Orson Scott Card's "Ender" books are captivating as all hell. I just read "Xenocide" and found it to be one of the most magnificinet books I've read in years. |

Nothing beats the classic noir of "Sequential actions of BMP receptors control neural precursor cell production and Batman" Denny Oneil, Bernie Wrightson, and a buncha Docs from John's Hopkins. It's the shit. |

| theapportioner | Huh. The review I read in Harper's described it as Nabokov-esque, which I think is dead on. I do like the "authorship by committee" idea. |

OMG, "SpL201: A Conditionally Immortalized Schwann Cell Precursor Line that Generates Myelin" was SO the hotest book I ever read! 'Briefly Noted' in the New Yorker wrote of it "Paul Aster meets Dylan Thomas in Boner City" |

Recent reads "A Developmentally Regulated Switch Directs Regenerative Growth of Schwann Cells Through Cyclin D1" "Sequential actions of BMP receptors control neural precursor cell production and fate" "SpL201: A Conditionally Immortalized Schwann Cell Precursor Line that Generates Myelin" "The Ets Domain Transcription Factor Erm Distinguishes Rat Satellite Glia from Schwann Cells and is Regulated in Schwann Cells by Neuregulin Signaling" All highly recommended. |
