Im wondering if anyone on RKR is currently reading a book as of late. If so what is it about? and do you recommend it to anyone to read? For me i finished up Smashed by Koren Zailckas and it was about a girl who discovered alcohol at a very young age, i will not describe what happens next because it's to interesting and i do not want to spoil it for anyone. Right now i am currently reading Prozac Nation by Elizabeth Wurtzel, which so far that ive read 4 pages of, talks about her problem with medication, it seems interesting. I definitly recommend it if your into real storys about people with deep conflicts in their lives. |

I just started reading Stephen King's, The Dark Tower series about a month and a half ago and I'm over half done with the sixth of seven. Simply amazing story, King wrote the first one in 1982 and finished in 2005 I believe. I couldn't imagine having to wait as many years as there were between books. Anyone who likes westerns, fantasy, Lost, apocoplypse type of things should check this out. |

Right now I am finishing up The Heroin Diaries by Nikki Sixx. Very insightful book into what he was going through during 1987 and recording/touring for the "Girls, Girls, Girls" album. He was addicted to heroin, cocaine, alcohol, and pretty much anything else you could think of. My only problem is that during some points of the diary, it comes across as written as a story and not a journal. Lined up next I will be reading the autobiography of Chuck Liddell. |

The Scott Pilgrim series by Bryan Lee O'Malley. Sort of a video-game/manga hybrid satire. Very funny and can't wait for the film version supposedly coming soon. |

Books I've read recently: World War Z(Anybody who likes zombies should read this, it's premise is Max Brooks(the author) interviewing men and woman about their experiences during a zombie outbreak that occurred years prior. Everything is written in transcript form, as each character ranging from a Japanese computer geek fighting through an apartment building, to the US soldiers who were on the frontlines in some of the biggest hits humankind took from the Zombies. It's a really fun read, and is rumoured to be produced by Brad Pitts production company for a movie. Also, this book is written by the guy that wrote the Zombie Survival Guide so, if you know that book, then, you should pick this up. I picked up a couple of the Halo universe novelisations for cheap, they're decent, but only if you're already a fan of the series. Not so recently: The Dark Tower series, I started Song of Susannah(Book 6?) and never got aorund to reading the rest because smaller books would look easier to read but, it is an amazing book series, definately Kings best work, he blends so many styles together to create one single story in a way I haven't seen before. Amazing. |

Motley Crue's "The Dirt" Heroin Diaries was a very heavy read and gets really emotional at the end, hopefully "The Dirt" can live up to Sixx's book. |

Oh, that reminds me, I also read Bob Dylans first autobiography Chronicles Vol. 1(of a planned 3). If you have an interest in music and the process of recording/gigging then it really is a great insight. He talks a lot about the days when he would play in small folk clubs aorund New York before anybdoy knew who he was. And he goes into some of his later years and the troubles he had finding "it" when recording his album. wierdly enough he strays clear of his most successful years/albums, maybe saving them for a later book. Whatever, I enjoyed the hell out of it and wait anxiously for Volume 2. |
