I just read what flesh and blood is about and it sounds like it's the book right before the murder book. Maybe I should read it first haha.

Yea its a good book. Its the memoir of a now highly successful lawyer in LA who had it rough growing up (to say the least). Its her story of rape, prostitution, drugs and alcohol. I'm almost done ill probably finish it tomorrow. Her story is pretty amazing.

[Bangs McCoy]

The Art Of War

[VICVALLIN]

the last James Patterson book i read was the sixth target (I've read all of the murder club books)

i just finished the 6th target before i began maximum ride. the murder club books are ok, but the alex cross series is definitely better.

[mansell]

Rosa Lee....this book would make a great movie (i would be suprised if they didnt) *checks*

[manyfaces]

i knew that was you! :laugh:
actually, i lied earlier. i haven't read everything by him because i forgot that i haven't yet read stranger than fiction. i have read all of his fiction, though. invisible monsters was probably my favorite one. i also really liked choke and survivor.. even though the twist in "choke" reminded me of his fight club twist, which i fukking HATED in the movie but kinda dug in the book.
you'll probably like lullaby, too.. i'm currently trying to get my boyfriend turned onto chuck p, and i loaned him "survivor".. like i said, what i love about him is that he puts so much research and effort into every book and the end result is so much fascinating sh1t that is true, half-true, or could be true.

Good to see some fellow Chuck P fans. I think I read em all except for stranger than fiction and I'm working on Haunted now. I always read to my girlfriend the strange facts he has in his books to see her reaction.

[VICVALLIN]

i just began this book called the last street novel by omar tyree. omar tyree is like one of the few black authors i can tolerate to read consistently because his books are more imaginative and revolve around more than just boy meets girl type sh!t.
